Default Turbos and the A4

How many of you are using a built 4l60e with a PT74GTS or PT76GTS? I currently have a TCI SSF 4l60e and was wondering what others experience has been. Thank you in advance.

Yup, just make sure its built. As long as you don't plan to go over 600-650rwhp max with a reputable 60-e builder. I was going to do a 80-e conversion but now I am getting a viper spec t-56 instead. More fun on the street

It's sad to see anyone buy a 'built' tranny and then not be able to let it shift to OD under WOT. Might as well save a bit more and put a nice 4L80E in there and not worry about thrashing it.
