Finishing up a (bolt-on) build for my Evo X MR; in short, DOM 2.0, GSC2 Cams/Beehive springs, ETS FMIC/Piping/Intake, 93 oct, etc.. I won't really be tracking the car, and pretty much just drive around town, so, my question is...

Should I consider:
- SSP's clutch packs with seals
- SSP's front mount trans cooler
- Both?
- Neither?

If neither, I assume the stock trans should be able to handle the 350wtq it should produce?

Thanks!

 

My car has spent its entire life since new with more than 350ft/lb, the last 600 miles at 417ft/lb. It now has 6,800 miles and it feels fantastic. Only when it starts slipping will I upgrade the SST clutches, but no sign of it though. Guess it also depends on tuning.

Rock on dude, thanks. Impressive numbers on the stock clutches. Any mods at all to the SST at all? Coolers, etc?

 

Everything is still stock.

 

Same here, with about the same power on my MR. I did track it, but the tracks I went to had long straights so it was enough to cool the transmission. Usually drove in Sports / manual mode.
