i dont think price is going to be a huge problem for people. To have the option to own a automatic AWD car I can take the kids to school in while theres snow outside goto the track and run 9's, get **** drunk and have my fiance drive me home since she cant drive stick and still get decent mileage sounds like a plan to me. **** an EVO X MR.

I may be wrong, I apologize if I am, and I don't intend to sound like an ****, but I assume it's not really considered to be an automatic. I think you still have to manually change gears. But I understand how it would still make life a lot easier without the use of a clutch. (I presume there is no clutch involved)

Trans case is suppose to be here Fri/Mon so we are hoping the car is running for the Buschur Racing Sport Compact Narionals next week!

from the current data it looks like you'll be looking at a rebuild every run...

jessemanEVO, I can't answer that. I can say that so far we haven't broken or shown any signs of any type of wear to the actual trans components. The only failures we've had are through the figuring out how to get it in the car and make it all fit.

Yes, the trans looks like it's going to be in and ready. It didn't fit, the case, when it came back and it's been over to be machined on a bridgeport three times. I think this time we should be able to get it installed.

It'd be so nice to have a trans where you don't need to worry about it breaking... or the yearly/every other clutch rebuilds at high power levels.

I know that my evo is barely making 400awhp, but the more I think about this auto trans thing the more I want to see how it turns out. Really tired of buying clutches year after year. Great job BR...if you guys need a 5spd trans, and want to test an auto trans on another evo let me know, serious.
