Default TVS2300 on stock 05 GTO auto

After searching, I can't find anyone who has put a 2300 on a completely stock 05 A4 GTO, am I missing any info on this install?

My wife has been demanding more power from her car for months... I finally broke down and did something about it. I need to make sure this works right, otherwise she said I have to put in a forged 427 with more boost.

Sorta the same engine we just put a 2300 on a bone stock 07 trailblazer SS. Did not touch the exhaust or anything, with a 3.3" pulley. Truck weighs 5060 with driver on 22's and went 12.11@113 all day long. They run 13.9-14.4s stock.

Yes, and yes, I am concerned.

Up to now she has run the car at the track with 235/40/18 street tires, no hop due to the auto. Very little wheel spin since she doesn't really drop the hammer hard off the line.

The blower will need some drag radials to hook, but then what will break?

The trans is stock, I would recommend a shift kit for the trans as it will help it stay alive. Also when tuning make sure to keep enough torque management in it during the shifts.
