Thanks Chad for the input. I know of one monster that had his tranny changed once but twice. Just wondering how much power these will hold. One weak link is axles and another is clutch. Now if you upgrade both then the pressure will transfer to the tranny if I am not mistaking. These engines are not cheap if know what I mean. Great discussion here with you guys and good knowledge. KPG sorry again for intrusion.

My axles, LSD and clutch were also addressed. Square cut tranny gears are much more noisy, but a lot stronger than radius ones. I believe the trick to not breaking parts with any of these high powered 996tt's is not to abuse them off the line.

K24madness is infamous around these parts
Without reading through the 16 pages I knew what was going to happen early on. KPG I am glad to see you moved the project over to a team of people that can get the job done. Lessons learned I am sure. I respect your composure in this situation.

Never been a fan of Kevins. Too many lies and misinformation that only serve his own purpose. No need to air it all here.

Best wishes on finally completing the project!!

Who needs the Houston threadjackers, when the EVOMS crew is available... Joetwint is urban legend my friends, Why is it that during all these record setting runs we see pics of Todd, John, the rest of the EVO crew ...but never Joe... Hmmm, makes you wonder.
