all i know is your gonna be bustin out plenty more money for new trannies if you ever do get a custom kit made.

fastvtecl is on his 6th tranny just from spraying! He probably drives it hard as fuck, but still, N2O isn't even putting stress on the tranny unless your spraying, which is probably like once a week. Imagine that turbo just fucking your tranny up every time you drive.

If you do get it good luck, but we might have a new record for most blown trannies in a CL!

I dont have any suggestions, and good luck! I would love to have a turbo in my 3.0!

However, I HIGHLY recommend getting your tranny bullet-proofed. You'll most likely destroy your stock transmission!

Good luck!

Hey,

There's a shop down here in Miami called "Miami Speed Shop" (go figure) that seems to be very reputable and is also expanding very quickly.

I have thought of doing the turbo for my 3.0 as well and have asked for an estimate from them. They quoted me for a single turbo setup with everything custom fabricated with a boost controller, everything tuned in their newly opened dyno, for 6Gs. That is too much for me at this time and so I held off however will eventually have it done.

Again I know it's in Miami and far from IL but for what it's worth at least you have a ballpark figure of about 6Gs. Hope this helped you.

If It wasnt for the tranny, I'd have a turbo by now, that's the only thing thats holding me back heh, I'm tryin to find a shop that'll maybe get me a discount if I do a turbo/tranny install/swap with them at 1 time =\

Gonna be fucking expensive tho, but worth it kinda.. I intend on keeping the car till it wont start on me anymore =\
