x2 this! ^

 

My auto tranny took a crap after a month at 6 psi on a 54 trim.

 

261WHP 263WTQ 13psi lasted about 8,000 miles to much power and TQ

 

About a year on 12psi making 261whp 260wtq. Turned it up to 18psi, lasted a day

 

so if you kept yours at still 12 psi you think youll last another year or was it crapping out also what size turbo did you use t3/t4, 60-1? garrett? cause by the look of it looks sounds like you guys had big turbo to blow in 6 months or less or you just stepped on it all day to crap soo badd....

 

also i read about your setup back in the days i though you had a built tranny too huh??? but yeah i bet life is better with a swap for you???

 

^ i believe he is talking about the built tranny....if memory serves me correct, it couldnt hold the power either!

 

Yea i got a built tranny and sold it to somebody on the forum. Never actually tuned it with the new tranny or anything. Manual was way better.

 

Yeah I've heard it a lot of times.... well i just wanted to see if someone had a Turbo at least more then 2 years auto Turbo... was planning Dezod S1 kit to be safe T3/T4
also I heard some one on here did their body valve to shift better for their auto would that help any in any case or it would be the same???

2 years...average boost 10psi...max boost 17psi...turbonetics kit. valve body upgrade and tranny cooler.
damage was done to transmission but it still would shift and drive normal out of boost.

 

Hell no. I had a small turbo to only make 260 on 12 psi. I had a gt28rs, disco potato

 

And yeah, I think mine would have lasted a while. Valve body, and trans cooler. Swapped to a 5 speed is way more fun though.

 

dam 2 years and still damage with a valve body upgrade gosh..... i guess ill just push 230 to 250hp max around 6 to 8psi i should be good.. but dam 2 years is pretty decent so far.....

 

I assume Chris is talking about my tC. It was still pulling strong and was a very reliable car until I did something stupid to it. The engine actually blew up and the trans was still kicking. It is still working today as far as I know, I recently traded it in on an E92 M3

EDIT: I have lots of the swap parts needed to goto manual and I have a stock valve body as well that I will get rid of cheap if you're looking for parts.

 

no im dont need parts for a while but what did you do??? over boosted or racing????

 

been about 1 year at 280 whp/302 tq. stock tranny, stock valve body. i got a trans cooler also. still shifts perfectly

-change tranny fluid often
-get trans cooler
-let off a little bit on shifts

 

^but be careful im expecting mine to go pretty soon. i cant believe nothing has happened yet!

 

dang thats high numbers and one year thats sick..... and your still running the auto turbo???

 

Make sure you switch out the trams fluid before boosting the 07 and up models came with shotty fluids everything switched to eco
