I know that is for sell now, but nobody is commenting anything about it.

2. Do you have a tranny cooler, if yes which one.
3. When the car is AUTO are you having any problems at WOT?

Thank You

1. The car drives great shifts hard even down shifts hard enough to feel. This does not bother me. The car will break the tires lose in 3rd and has done 4th once.
2. B&M, you must run a tranny cooler if you do the SGP VB. I’m going to buy a temp gauge for it as this is one of the biggest issues to be concerned with.
3. I have yet to hit the rev limiter in auto mode. I’ve found my self always in manual mode if I’m trying to have “real” fun anyway. Auto mode shifts very fast I love it when I’m on the freeway and want to get around someone. I get on the gas and it drops down two gears at the same time I’m building pretty big boost. I have spinet the tires doing this.

I have a couple of questions: I am caught between a rock and a hard place regarding the APS TT and the Greddy.

1. Did you get your rev limiter raised.
2. What other mods do you have to get you to 480hp ,exhaust, plenum,test pipes? Which octane map?
3. Where did you get your unichip tuned?
