Review of weistec transmission review
Some may know and some might not know but I had my transmission shipped to weistec for rebuilding and I got it back last week
After a little bit of babying on the street I gave it a few test hits and omg what a difference the shifts are lighting fast and tight really tight the actual car feels tighter in manual mode the car is a weapon I mean this thing cracks gears and it just gives you a feel like no other
Now previous to the tranny build I ran a 10.9 at 131 mph with 1.70 60ft
Today I went and had another crack to see if I could better the time
I had 6 passes in total 4 x 10.9 passes at 133 and 134 mph and 2 10.8 passes at 134mph with a best 60ft of 1.77 nothing special at all
All in all the car is faster a lot faster if I could just get a better take off the car will go 10.6 ( back to the drawing board )
All in all I'm very happy the transmission has made a massive difference to the car and if anyone is in 2 minds about doing it just do it you won't regret it

Awesome. Thanks for the writeup. What did they say your stock tranny looked like when they got it apart? Anything clearly broken/worn?
This is def on my list.
