I just finished my external waste gate modification for my stock twins. Wow… what a difference, I now have better Boost control.

Heat is what kills automatic transmissions and the stock tranny doesn't have a very big pan to hold excess fluid which helps absorb and dissipate heat. The first thing I would do to give your tranny the best chances at holding up for a long time would be to install an aux. cooler and perhaps...

This is for those of you who are not familiar with having a turbo car, it is NOT the same as having a NA. You have to take care of the turbo to make it last, believe me, I went through a couple of turbos because I didn't know what I was doing. Change the oil at least every 3,000 miles, or more...
