No Jared you're good. I dont mind helping people out. Thats my job and what im here for. The only stupid question is the one that doesnt get asked. If you dont know the answer you have to ask to find out. Simple as that.

5-speed...

I don't even think Buschur bothers with the 6-speed.

looking to get this in the near future as well after this deployment. So how much does this run? And would it be easy to just get a whole transmission with the upgrade what is the price difference? I haven't got number for my evo yet but were guess around 600ish. How long before I mess up transmission and differential? Looking to try and get up there with you guys in the 9's. If I am running in the 11's will this help me get lower times.

thomas, give Dan a call at the shop about the pricing on building yours or building a new one. If your trans shifts good now then a rebuild is not going to help you go faster. As for how long it will last, a lot of that depends on how good the guy is driving the car and honestly some luck. I ran 2 full years running LOW 9's with zero issues. The issue I ended up having was a .29 cent factory bushing backed out of the actual case cause a shift rail to drop. #1 thing, get a good clutch.
