I really don't beat it up. I hit 14psi in 2nd so I believe thats the reason why. I think I'm going to do the supra option. Getting all my ducks in a row before I pull the trigger.

When you say you hit 14psi in 2nd(which from your sig is over 300tq), was this a one time thing? Or often.

I have hit 14psi often in second gear..I hit second gear hard. I didn't think it would go out. I was ignorant to the fact that it would go.

We are working on a solution for that. Converting the signal to output 5 volts is very easy but you will need a way to adjust the pulse to match the gearing.

Could you adapt the "yellow box" people used for 4.57 gears to correct the speedo?

I found an OEM trans with lifetime warrenty for 1500$. I think this will be my cheapest route. Once install I'll just lower my boost in 1st and 2nd and call it a day.Supra trans is a lot of $$$ and I'd still would need a diff to launch it.
