It would be different if Joey asked "What parts can I install in my tranny for XXXwhp?" or "What tires are good for XXXwhip?" Something to those effects. The way he's wording his threads, it just comes off as bragging/advertisement for his setup.
But I agree, if you don't like it don't post and ignore. I hope I didn't come across as being to negative, just voicing my opinion. I have a build coming up underway as well so I want to make sure I'm aware of everything current, even if its something miniscule like in this case.

Joey, you and I are in the same boat expect I'm going to use e85. If your smart the rear should last a while. If your planning on 600 plus hp the trans will eventually start having problems. Either way, your setup is capable of whatever you throw at it.

6 years? How about 9! My car is older than my cat lol
Trust me, I understand your excitement. I'm (hopefully) within weeks of getting the magic Mase touch and the suspense kills me sometimes. The longer it takes, the more money I seem to spend on other stuff. Seems like its taking forever! I guess I should start a build thread one of these days.

I had no problem flooring my 300hp set up, but the dyno dynamics 400hp is a whole nother story. I like short shift all the time now. Its a bit more like ohh shit kinda thing. Good luk with that new set up. It's gonna be Joey balls in your throat. Or Joey gonna need some balls to run it out in 5th gear.
