Re: Stocks Trans LIMIT

that is about as vague as the questions come. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> its so hard to say...some people break them stock, other have close to or over 500rwhp and tq. a big deciding factor is heat...its the number one killer of autos. keep the heat down and i guarantee you extend the tranny life. power has planty to do with it. abuse does as well...do you slam drive and hit the gas when the car is still moving backwards? do you manually downshift at high rpms? these will kill the autos and should be avoided, but its still hard to say how much.
