no boost controller.... i heard that the manuel boost controller will give you a code so thats out of the picture for now i guess... maybe a digital boost controller... need to do some research there....

not worried about the tranny... will be getting ssp clutch packs... just want to make sure what people say with real life driving / testing... im not going to go crazy anyway... im hoping 300 tq and maybe 310 hp to the wheels?? what do u guys think?

With a tune you'll be quite a bit over that...

It really depends on the dyno and the tuner (do they want to stay conservative or boast big #'s) but I think you should be able to reach your goals.

If I were you I'd do a bit more research about the overheating issues... it's not just a matter of the clutch holding...

Interesting, we have never had a problem with a manual boost controller. You should be over 300whp even on the MR. Keep us posted!

Thanks,

Michael

i know about the tranny overheating... it will overheat with launching the car TWICE or going around a track hard ONCE i know.... SSP has an oil cooler being developed plus an oil pan to disperce the heat.. looks good... sadly the cooler will not fit with a dual exhaust so my ETS catback will have to go on sale in about 6-12 months... i know about the tranny issues and with 300 TQ the tranny will hold with the right driving... launching the car and crazy driving will kill the SST with 250 TQ... its all about how you drive it... i do have a heavy foot but i love my car and i'll make sure it will last me until i start seeing good feedback from people with the SSP upgrades...
