Re: wicked 04 gt2
transmission is going to be rebuilt for about 800 or less going to be rebuilt with heavy duty everything so in the future (next year maybe) it will be able to withstand the stage two turbo. when the transmission is being rebuilt im tearing everything down and replacing all gaskets and adding oil pressure gauge and a digital thermostat gauge. also replacing rear sway bar with a stiffer one mine is actually cracking on the passenger side thats all to come in the next 6 months!!!

You'll need 1200-1500 just in really good upgrades on top of the rebuild kit to handle a 300-400whp turbo car without seeing real problems right away. I'd say before you hit the 50k mark on the rebuilt trans the chain would need replacing again.

Re: wicked 04 gt2
droning sound was from the wheel hub assembly on the passenger side its shot got to get a new one also the tire on the front passenger side was so bad i chewed through some of the steel bands on the inside it was so worn down so lucky i didnt have a blow out lol. Also the c/v joints are shot they clunk when the wheel is turned all the way to the left. rights not bad but ive got a slice some how in the passenger boot so it looses grease ive got to stick a grease gun in there alot and grease it also finally getting money saved up for trans to be re built oh and the rear sway bar has a crack in it were it bolts to the sway bar link YEAAAAA car is litarly falling apart on me ive put 21k miles on it in 11 months though trying to decide to keep it and fix it or trade it i love it though and needs new windshield oh and i still owe $3,643
