Well your N/A power level was pushing it. The nitrous probably put it over the top. A friend with a 620rwhp blown C5 had similar problems and ended up going with RPM Transmissions for his rebuilt 6spd. No problems since. I think it was pretty reasonable. I helped with the reinstallation. Took some time, but not terrible. Extra set of hands really helps.

Sorry to hear about the transmission. I wanted to make it down to watch not to run but had some visitors drop by.
I have had bad luck with meeting up with everyone during the week. If anyone is going out this weekend let me know.
