What turbo for a 5AT. I'm ready
Nice to see some other ST Louis area guys on here. I have a virgin 04 5AT Touring that I want to upgrade next year. My wife ran it at Gateway a few times and had a best of 14.33@96. The goals for this car have me considering the Stillen SC. I've had plenty of experience with the Eaton's in my Lightning and I'd be curious to see what Stiegemeier could get out of it with a good porting. On my Lightning, the porting was good for 30HP, 20TQ.
As for higher Octane, 100oct is $5 at the track and 104oct is $5.30 at Bier Brothers. I usually run 104 at the track with the Lightning.

i have the greddy tt in my z w/stock guts and have had no porbs...been running stock boost up to 6.5 max for a few months now no probs there...i guess all cars are different....some guys toasted there motors w/ stock boost and internals...i know a guy w/a g35 that fied 5 of 6 pistons on 7 psi...so youll just have to see.
I'm hearing good things about NRH Transmissions in Jessup, MD, for upgrading our A5T for forced induction. They go through and strengthen everything that needs it in the tranny to handle the extra power of forced induction and make the shifts quicker so that you can leave the tranny in full auto mode and not hit the rev limiter before it shifts to the next higher gear for qtr. mile sprints, etc. (That has been a problem for most in this forum that have forced induction with the stock A5T.) Quicker, firmer downshifts also for spirited driving. Do you guys/gals have any opinion or feedback on NRH?

More Power,
I have never heard of them. (NHR) Most guys here use Edge, Stillen or Level 10. I personally have the Edge Racing H/S torque converter and reccomend it. I also have the TS flash and my car shifts in full auto mode without a problem. I have been told that it will shift harder with the valve body upgrade but so far I have only heard mixed reviews about it.
