Is there a general "safe zone" for the 6-speed similar to the 400 lb-ft rule for the stock rods ? Obviously if you load the transmission (and engine) in high gears from low rpm you would be putting more strain on it, but wondering if there is a general rule of thumb as I plan to upgrade my JDM Evo IX GSR shortly (new to the Evo scene).

I've seen some tunes limit torque to 350 for 6-speeds.

The "rule of thumb" is 350wtq.

Damn I was hoping it would coincide with the 400wtq rod rule of thumb...better safe than sorry I guess...

I literally made just about these same numbers last week with very similar supporting mods at 26psi. Couldn't get more out of the turbo.
