Is it me or alot of people over looking something that would give you a lot more power to the wheels with out having to do one thing to the engine... Droping your car off at a good tranny shop and letting them rebuild you transmission so you could have 95% of the engines power to the ground....has anyone tired this yet? or is going to try this? i know you guys doing swaps and turbos might really want to look into this.... cause whats the point of having all that power if your losing 30% in side the tranny....


let me know why you guys think?

Definitely use a good synthetic lube, 5spd or Auto, probably the best gain for your tranny dollars. I recommend Amsoil as they are the oldest and largest maker of synthetic lubes.
Look up your local Amsoil dealer in the yellow pages under "oil" or order online thru my site:
http://www.lubedealer.com/cthompson/

(the preferred customer plan online is the most cost effective way to buy if you get together with someone else and order enough for a couple of cars, maybe throw in one of their foam air filters for your stock airbox?)

(Or become a dealer and make a little extra cash on the side supplying friends and neighbors? )

(Sorry guys, couldnt resist making a sales pitch, but it is a great product and I get to deduct a lot of mileage and expenses)
