- Mon Nov 02, 2009 8:24 pm #154389 I'm looking for a tranny setup for a boosted itr that can handle 550hp without breaking on me. It won't be a daily driver, only an occasional one for shows, etc.. I may take it on cruises down the autostrada from time to time. Love short bursts, but still have to put power to the top end. Any setup suggestions?

Have the gears cryo treated like Teal said. Get carbon coated synchros. I'm not sure if anyone makes an LSD for the LS tranny though...you'll want that...

- Tue Nov 24, 2009 8:27 pm #158210 Yeah, we were talkin' on the other thread about it.. I'm definitely feeling the LS, but I wanna make sure I get a good internal setup. I think a guy in Williamsburg I knew has an LS with LSD, but I haven't talked to him in a while.
