i was in no way trying to defend the trans in my truck, its just as worthless as the auto in a contour. if you read the post you would see that i wasnt defending the auto trans at all. the trucks trans is barely adequate for a stock vehicle, hence why it blew with my only mods being an e fans, exhaust, and an airfilter. it is definately not up to the task, just as the atx isnt in a contour.
demonsvt -- congrats on those times, thats really respectable for an n/a motor.
im hoping that my trucks engine runs mid 13's n/a. at 8.5:1 comp that will be a feat. im hoping to turn mid 11's with the turbo setup tuned.
