Philamthebest's SSP Rebuild

So about 3 months ago i sent my car to SSP Performance to start on the rebuild of my transmission. My goal with my car is around 450hp so SSP put in the 500hp clutch discs. I'm also having some other work done on the car: Turbo install, cams and a few other things. I will post more pictures as the rebuild goes on. Very excited to get my car back and tuned..... :-)

with all the work ssp can do, with clutch packs and seals or whatever; what will they be doing about the TCU reprogramming?

^^ I don't think they are.

Not sure why you're jumping the gun on horsepower when we haven't figured out the TCU programming yet.

What do you plan to do with your TCU?

Have you seen the results of an overpowered MR? I have... and it is a blown engine when the TCU goes into self protection mode and lets the engine free rev under full throttle load.
