Default Who's running 400+ whp?

How's your tranny holding? I'm debating wheather or not to go ahead with my accord. It will be running a full built H23A1 with a T04 of some sort pushing 15psi street and 20psi track. I'm wondering if the tranny can take it. I'm already looking into driveshafts, LSD and clutches. It's looking expensive enough already that I'm having second thoughts. I'm starting to think this kind of power is best left to RWD cars.

Your thoughts?

all the above will help it last a bit. its how you drive also. if you powershift and sidestep the clutch it wont last long. I had a type r tranny that 2 years of 480+ whp before i got it and i put 500+ to it and it lasted only 2 months. my buddy whos tranny it was only ran 40mph races and it never really put a strain on the tranny. its all how you drive.
