NA for life!

Boosted is fun for a while, but then you realize you spend more time fixing, upgrading, tuning than you actually do DRIVING.

I'm off that stuff now ;)

Perhaps..... but with a 13B na I can't have it on the dyno while little bits of transmission scatter themselves from underneath the car while a puddle of tranny fluid is ever expanding from underneath while the turbo monster I built and tuned just purrs at idle laughing at the broken shafts and chunks of AL casing that are soaked in awesomeness. :fawk:

Well, you can.

P-port, full race bearings, massive ITB's, RPM's so high the trans bearings will seize leaving a trail of glory, and parts.

I'm on my third or fourth tranny. . . I can vouch for this as fact. Specifically the HIGH RPMs!

I'm talking case breaking torque here.... not 12k rpm's that kill bearings and sync's

who is revving to 12k? NA cars really destroys transmissions faster than Turbo?

I was high up there, maybe more, maybe less. . The gauge only goes to 8 so it's hard to tell. :)

I had a video of me test driving the car open down pipe and burying the needle for seconds. .

Anything will destroy the trans with RPM's way above what the bearings and lubrication limitations are.

So, 7-8-9k good to go. Past 10k, shit gets hectic.

Most turbo cars break them with torque.

Yep! I know, picking up a trans this weekend :)

The ITS cars were killing the N/A trannies on the back straight at pocono.... just winding them out in 5th and burning up the bearings

10,248 rpms.... I broke a corner seal and bounced the rotors off the plates. Tranny lived

:awesome: Done that twice... once at 142mph on LimeRock

Someone needs to donate an S2 trans to me so I can figure out how to get them into FC's ;)

The trans I'm replacing. . Till I can get it rebuilt to put back in is a JDM S5 TII. I'm buying a rebuilt S4 TII to hold me off till I can get the S5 repaired.

Wait, you had an S2 RX8 tranny in your FC and that's what took a shit?

No, all I've ever had in the FC was NAs and TIIs

I blew a s2 RX8 trans at the track. Vin and Adler had to come rescue me in Bowling Green on a school night. Didn't get home until after mid night. Good times.
