Will I be OK with a Level 10 TC and valve body when going stage 3? New tranny
has only 400 miles on it, figured I'd put the L10 TC and valve body in while the tranny is new and the KO4's are being installed. TIA for any information!

2nd. Although I have no first hand experience with either, there seem to be too many premature
failures with the L10 TC's. ZF TC's aren't at all easy to service, leave it to the people that do it right. Frictions, steels, and line pressure they can handle, leave the TC to 3zero3. (and the programming to ASP soon)

Mark from ASP must give me tipchip NOW!!!!! Must shift faster NOW!!!!!!...............
i truly think that a tip chip for our upgraded tans is what will bring these tip cars up to their potential. IMO a properly tuned tipchip+upgraded trans will be enough to give a similiar tuned 6speed
the extra edge it need to overcome the weight difference and other performance sappers of the auto tranny

like 1 gear short? :) I agree whole heartedly. Quick shifting automatic
with manual control is fun to drive. i.e. SMG. And yes asscakes I know we don't have SMG's, just making a point.

we might be one gear shorter up top but we have a shorter final drive enabling us to reach....
~10mph more than the 6speeds can in first gear. The lack of a 6th gear would make more of a difference in a an all out top speed contest more alot more than an autocross or drag contest
