It's cool for the future I guess. If they ever need to do a swap with turbos then the tranny upgrade will be completed.

I never heard of anyone needing a tranny upgrade with an ECU tune though

Got my car back today
Alli can say is holy ****. I will post my dyno once I scan it but my HP and torque are well over mid 600. The down pipes sound like a pack of lions fighting to mate. But a whisper during the idle. I.C. allows identical pull, and the transmission really changes gears smooth. If you love the roar when it downshifts all I can say is now its sick. The car is just unreal.
I'm not a promotor but how can you take your car anywhere else but renntech. The people and owner eat sleep amg for over 20 years.

The cooliing system is roughly $1300, there are options to add extra coolers etc. For summers in az I think I will go forward with this it flows twice as much volume and temps drop by 20 degrees which is huge.

Any updates? I was thinking of getting the full-blown Renntech treatment as well. I wasn't sure if the tranny upgrade was worth it/necessary.
