Our pricing on the G-force stuff is slightly less than whats on their website.

I agree, if your trans is lasting you a few years than you don't need this trans.

Mine were only lasting a few months at best.

Jim, if you were to try to go say 155mph would you have to go with bigger turbos and/or a bigger cam?

Well, since the car is out of RPM, I could first try taller tires with the current setup.

If it still ran 149, than I would say the cam/heads are holding it back.

Turbos should be capable of 155.

Intercooling could be improved.
