I just ordered a new 5 speed tranny with their Street and Strip package with all the add ons, and he said it would be two weeks. 8 days later they called and said it was done, I just have to drive my core out there to pick it up this week. If you have them use a new core that they have there already it will significantly cut down on that 2 weeks, but If you have to ship them yours, have them rebuild it and then ship it back, you are honestly looking at around 2 weeks.

The turn around time on my tranny was fast. Really fast. I was going to have them rebuild my T-case too, but nothing is wrong with mine yet. If I remember correctly they said they do not have any 9 ACD T-Cases available to use as cores. That was last week though.

they can only work on so many at a time

they probably go through them in stages

if you are sending your tranny in they can't start until they get it unpack it and inspect it etc etc

It's because yours was not the only one they're rebuilding. I'm sure they have a lot of tranny and transfer case to rebuild so it all depends on who's package they get first will get the work done.

Took them about 2 weeks for my t-case and tranny to come back. I think that fast! And my shifts like butter with no issues.

SLEEPER,

How did you blow up the t-case? Launching? It's what around $2,500 for the t-case?

I made 508/448 on 32lbs and went 10.5@135.58mph. Talked with my tuner(junior who did the sick tune) and he actually had it running clean up to 38lbs and it was around 560-580whp with just mbc on stock ecu and e85. Ill be heading back to the track here very soon hoping for 9's or close to it on drag radials!

But anyway, I can do lightning quick shifts with the shep trans and t-case....no issues.
