Guys,
My second Auto took a dump on Friday. It had about 41K miles on it with about 13K miles on a Blown 383. The old 4L60E trans was made to handle 500 "FLYWHEEL" HP Max.
Here is my dilemma......I am looking into either getting a M6 conversion OR going with a 4l60e made to withstand 650 Flywheel HP www.dynotechperformance.com They has one in the Vette Running 9.70 in the quarter mile with no issues so far and has many guys running them in thier daily drivers with 500++ "REAR" Wheel HP & TQ. I can get the Auto Trans and have it installed for about 2300 bucks.
I was also thinking about doing a M6 conversion but I cant seem to find a complete or decent M6 anywhere and the install prices are up there with install and finding all the parts I am looking at about the same price or more than the Rossler Transmission. I think the M6 conversion would be more fun on the street and would give better gas mileage but it would also require a 12 bolt rear pretty soon and that is money I really dont have anytime soon to throw at the car.
What would you do if you were in my shoes? Go with the More stout A4 or the M6. I do drive my car about 600 Miles weekly and it will only see the track about 3-4 times a year, so please keep that in mind. Also Does anyone know of someone who is selling a T56 conversion kit or knows of a shop that can do the T56 install that wont charge a freakin arm and a leg in NJ. Please keep in mind also that my car should be making ~530 FLYWHEEL this year after I get it dyno tuned with my new Y-pipe, if its not there already.
Edit...I asked this question on the Forced induction side but wanted to see what you guys think as well since most folks here are making great power too.
Any help would be appreciated,
Claude
