not to sure about the NLTS. But I personally know 1slowsi and he had over 600whp for roughly 2years and then around a year at 700whp. I wanna say tq on 600 tune was around the 400s and the 700 was in the low 5's say 540? Either way that thing hit the dyno on a REGULAR basis and he did beat on it along with two step launches etc. His tranny did go out litteraly 3 days ago on him while he was crusing, serisouly just crusing. It would go into all the gears but when you would rotate it by hand it would feel like it hit something at 1 revaloution as if something was stuck in the gear or main yoke maybe. Either way he drove it, it lasted and he beat on it, and two stepped it. He bought a extra knowing that it would go eventually just didnt know when..... Hope this helps man. I would say its safe to say that if you wanna get on it a couple of times to race these people im more than postive you will be fine.... the whole no lift to shift though not to sure about it.. Only other tranny swaps you could do is maybe dog box (not super practical for daily) or supra tranny. Regardless, you gotta pay to play if you wanna be a big kid on the court.

 

I have been running flat foot shifting in the track car for years using T50/4AGE. LOTS of race guys run this option (the ECU soft cuts ignition based on throttle position and clutch switch).
