I don't think I've seen a thread go sideways more often than this one. Its about Weistec offering a tranny upgrade and its gone on personal rabbit trails more than its been on topic, good grief.
Can we please stay on topic and those of us that are making the upgrade will report back as soon as possible.

Weird how some guys already have this upgrade and yet no vids or anything of it have been posted?? Hopefully Dads can post some vids of the new trans at the track, etc.

not sure how many people actually have the new tranny , but i would be willing to bet anything that Keith will be giving us results immediately after some track time . my car should be at Weistec as of this afternoon so as soon as i get it back , i will also give the results . Keith always gives the great track results . too bad for me , there is no decent track anywhere around here , so all my results will be street use results , but i promise i will answer any questions people may have

Earl PM'd me to let me know he is working on getting some video of his car and will post it as soon as possible . i have no clue what's going on with Jim's car . these guys are doing so much work to their cars that videos of them running half *** wouldn't do it justice . i can understand why they don't post videos every chance they get cuz they keep adding to their projects

I hear ya. You must be excited to try out the new toy. So how does it feel? Describe the improvement if you can... a little teaser...


I hope I will be at the track next time you run if its not in FL. Hopefully soon.

Short Viedo

It was difficult to offer hard driving updates yesterday because I picked it up in 5:00 traffic and had family obligations last night. Also, please remember the car is in track mode so its VERY loud. 3" dual exhaust with no cats or muffs and only an x-pipe for exhaust.

However, I drove it to work this morning and tried to take a quick video. It does seem crisper on the shifts. The converter is stalling at 2500 rpms.

Its still learning the new tranny.

The spray will tell the tale. Video looks sick. 30-100 was REALLY quick. Sounds amazing. The tranny sounds like an MCT or close to a DCT. Very quick shift.

Cant wait for more.

These cars with a blower all the time must be crazy!! I can't hardly stay out of jail N/A. Couple of weeks ago headed to a simple car show:



I am still running stock axles because there are no options.

I hope to be at a track within the next few days to try out the spray.

You have to make options. It sucks but hopefully you won't need them. Good luck at the track, here comes nines!!!

Couldn't you just swap in the axles from the E63? That's what they did for the C BS.
