Default High HP 6 Speed cars what you have? 800-1000HP

Just wanna see what people with high HP are running. I just got a 01 T/A that is suppose to have a tick stage 2 t56 in it. So im curious what trans/ upgrade/ clutch you are running if you have some big HP. Im building a 6.0 single turbo 80MM and aiming for 800-1000 hp. Street car, that will occasionally visit the strip.

At a 1000 hp I don't care if God built it, you are going to need a oil pump system and a larger 30-31 spline mainshaft in it for it to hold up. A properly set up correct style clutch is a must as well.

With 800, you can probably get away without a pump depending on a few other factors but you will need the upgraded mainshaft in it.

I've got two customer that make that power in our 11" Ceramic units, one that makes 1100rwtq and we found that torque spot to be the top limiting factor on the unit. We're switching it to an iron unit to hold till the twins release.
