You can't turbo a tranny silly!



Seriously though, there have been some guys from FLA running 215whp or so for a long time on the stock trannies, so I'll start the bidding at 215whp.

1 million infinity


I think upwards of the mid 200 range you should be fine. All depends on the clutch, differntial setup, and driving.

I'd like to see a guy with 250 whp and phantom grip to a 8k rpm launch on stocky slicks
