whats up with the g force t-5 any good i will eventually need to get a tranny also but i dont know what will work i want something that will hold up to 700 horses
on my buddy's note he just needs something better than t-5 like just a step up really
and im my note should i just go to like a c-4 automatic is it cheaper and how much would it cost me to go from the t-5 to a c-4 i thought that was a good auto thats holds up to lots of power
i was gonna buy a tranny from them before but they dont have it on the site anymore it was a tranny that held 975 ftp
If it is a weekend car/racer C4's are awesome. When you sell your T-5 stuff you can recoup most of the cost when going to an automatic. I've got about $800 in my C4 setup, but i'll have about 1500 in it when i get the T-brake and the right converter in there.
But then it's ready for the 9's.
so how would this need to go down like where do i buy the tranny and prices and what all components and does my computer need to be changed or what i just have no clue on doin this so i need help with c-4 conversion
Well i've done a couple and it's not a big deal. As far as what you need to buy it depends on what you want to do. If you want a tranny brake don't even buy one unless you plan to spend 7-800 on axels, a new posi, ect, cause you'll brake some parts. You don't need to change your computer. You really don't need a fancy tranny but you do need some important pieces for it to function correctly.
1. Fresh Tranny---does not need to be mega dollar but you get what you pay for.
2. Big deep pan and tranny cooler---C4's need all the extra fluid cause heat is what kills a C4.
3. Full manual reverse VB---A C4 with a blower will not shift @ WOT under boost from 2-3. On a side note this helps the tranny to keep cool anyways.
4. H or F servo.
5. last but not least----converter.....a c4 will only be good as the converter you buy.....when someones car "slows down" when they go to an AUTO it's because they have the wrong converter in there.
Some like sticks but i like reliability.....
no **** man you sound like you know what you are doing i would have to save up and stuff im just tryin to figure out how im gonna do this cause i think in the long run my car will be better with strong auto
and my car seems like it should have close to 700 horses i mean i have d-1 17# pulley heads intake everything
what all you need to make that kind of horses and do you think c-4 holds up to that power
