how much to build me a full race tranny that is reallly strong and can hold 400+whp?

I emailed you on that... I don't have one yet... and not sure what we'll all develop in the next year.. but your best bet there is to talk to MPNick from Modern Performance and get his full custom billet gear set which will set you back 2800 but is a full set of gears, synchros, shafts, etc. very very impressive for the money.

I DON'T WANT TO GET YELLED AT, but I have to ask. Why? Why spend 10+k in a car that you might get the hp you want? Why not put that money on a car that already has that hp and then be done with it. Save this one for a work car. That just seems like a lot of money to me.
 
i have the sleeper kit

i did too said screw it i'm goint to the darkside,cuz i also spent a s*** load of money on a n/a engine and no big gain's so i bought my turbo kit and i'm running about like 5psi and made 180hp to the wheel's i still trying to get my car running right so i can see what more gain's i can get but there is alot of s*** going on in my car that it making hard to tune and s***. turbo kit is nice ass hell and work's fine but there and so issue's like i said with my car not the turbo kit. but if i can't figure out what is wrong with my car i selling the turbo kit everything wit it even exhaust and fuel magnt.

but if i were u i'll make sure that the car is running good and check to see if u have any leak's

MAM sleeper kit is the way to go!!!
welcome to the darkside bro!!!

I cant argue with you there but my only reason is that our car can really handle.I have seen this p5 outhandle a porshe when i was in AZ and ever since then i was sure that i was never gonna sell my car.

well, for me it's that this car will eventually be my play toy. hopefully after I graduate I will have enough money to at least by a pickup and a luxury car. If I have enough money I will spring for a sports car like a Porsche or something but this is wishful thinking right now. No matter what this car will always remain with me and be my way to get my modding fix while only doing minor things to my truck/luxury car. well, I'm not gonna go into it anymore cause this isn't the right thread. /threadjack
 
MPNick at Modern Performance can do you a block for around $2300-2500! That's the beauty of doing it all in house....cheaper. He can do everything in house from the motor, to tranny, to turbo kit, to engine management. He has a couple big dog MSP's under his belt. He has the highes HP per psi protege out. Shoot him a PM, email or give him a call. His contact info is on his site, www.modernperformanceinc.com
 
And how the heck did you manage to spend 6k?
Im only seeing about 1.5-2.5k MAX in mods in your scrolling sig.

I guess its safe to assume you have a LOT thats not in your sig...

It's fun.. it's a hobby... it's working with what you have. It's doing something unique.. it's not wanting a bigger car payment every month and being able to spend flexibly.. it's knowing that counting every penny I have in the car (not counting what Terry did to it before I got it) that there isn't anything on the road that costs the same (roughly 27,000- 13k for the car plus about 14K in mods or so that I did) new that can touch what I have for speed or handling...

welcome to the darkside bro!!!

What is your car all doing? turbo'ing a car really isn't that bad.. but it is about making sure you check, double check, and are precise as hell.

Nick does make a good block as well. So definitely consider him! Different components and different options done to the block... but still a very good block.
