Help with c32 build

Hello I was curious if I could get any advice on what upgrades are good for a c32 amg transmission I got quite a bit of parts I’m in wanting to put on from NeedsWings including intercooler oil catch can y pipe pulls upgrades intake and a vpr82mm throttle body upgrade and am worried that the transmission won’t be able to handle that much of a jump in power already have an lsd rear dif and carbon fiber upgraded driveline as well an questioning if some srt6 crossfire performance upgrades are compatible with the c32 amg just looking for any tips or advice Anything helps

Bluetop solenoids, TCU tune (MKUltra makes one i think), and definitely an external transmission fluid cooler. 722.6 was used in older SRT8 Chargers/Challengers, I have confidence in its ability to hold up when maintained tbh. Sounds like a killer build, hopefully we get some pix !

I have two 2003 C32 with mods, my black C32 I have had 12 yrs now and it has the most mods as follows: Need wings intake, 64mm clutch SC pulley, VRP short headers, Kincaid Killer chiller SC heat exchanger, OE tune, H&R lowering springs, Bilstein Sports shocks, Trunk lip spoiler, rear window spoiler . I have not done a TCU tune as of yet and my transmission is holding put to all that new power extremally well so far. My project Black Opal color has 64mm clutched SC pulley and SL55 Air Intake with air filter extension rings, they lift the air K&N air filters a little higher reducing the restriction of the air filter at the air intake opening. No tune as of yet just replaced the cats on that
