turboSHO kills transmission #5

theres no other tranny to give chances too, the only swap available is the MTX sho tranny

i think eventually alex will run out of new parts to break in his trans, and then the tranny will finally feel satisfied and stop breaking …

just picked up the new trans. should be up and running in a couple of weeks once the torque converter gets back.

I hate this car so much.

hahahah…

Soooo

What’s so great about number 6?

Haven’t you heard, 6th times the charm right?

what happen to the garage lol

I painted it pink

:tup: on spending more money on a money pit

You ever have the car dynoed or take it to the track? Must cost alot of money to keep rebuilding/buying new trannys

Should put a few 6s on there…
Like three.

no dyno yet but I am expecting 350-400whp. my best time is a 12.79 @108. Now that I have figured out how to disable the tq management I will actually be able to launch it instead of rolling off the line at less than stock power.

but seriously.

What is great about number six?
I remember hearing good about 5 and 3…

4 was a bit snkyr

You would probably have better luck with a stock tranny :lol:

damn… really is it that cheap to put your money into this?

That’s some carnage! What’s different with #6 to get it to hold?

Alex, have you considered finding a super low mileage trans and having the components cryo treated? I’ve read and heard of some impressive results. It might be just enough combined with the other improvements you’ve done.

weld it.

its ballet slipper pink

am i seeing this right? is the diff carrier part of a planetary gearset? man that trans looks wierd.

if this one pops, what are you guys gonna do? i say turn it sideways and do a RWD swap with a mustang T5 and a 3.0L pushrod bellhousing. :slight_smile:

Brian

so wait wait wait…you’re upset about having wasted $35 on race gas…but all the money you’ve wasted on tranny’s doesn’t bother you?
