the Exedy TD is the way to go IMO
as far as the tranny I believe it is the T case that goes on em (I remeber someone saying it has to do with the way mitsu shimmed them)
Shep offers a rebuild for about 400 IIRC or you can upgrade and get the stage 2 and get the OEM Mitsu LSD for about 1k

I would ask them about the transmission

do you HAVE to rebuild your transmission?
I thought that the 5spds where good for a decent amount of power and the major failure point was the T case?
and if you have to do a rebuild is the street\strip one good for 500wtq or so?

ok guys, i need some help. Now that i've got this build rollin, there are a few major things that probably need to be done to my car. I'm running 31 psi and making 558hp and 414 tq on a stock transmission and a piece of crap ACT clutch. Any input on what to do with my transmission. I am completely clueless on how anything goes with the transmission. how much can a stock tranny hold, for my set up should i get mine rebuilt or buy a new one, and any other info in general would be nice. As far as my clutch goes, i think im going to go with the Exedy twin disk. Any opinions on that? Let's hear what ya got...

Exedy twin disk is a good clutch. Its what i got, have had it now for about 12k miles and still running strong, keep in mind though i have never launched my car. It is a stiff clutch however so that kinda sucks about it specially for any type of stop and go traffic. I think the exedy twin disk is rated to about 800 Torque to the flywheel so that should be more than adequate for your current setup
Allinevo, your pm box is full, so i couldnt respond to your pm. As far as that tranny goes that Redwing is selling, i've already bought a few things from him, and i would buy the t-case and do that, but i dont really wanna spend the money buying another one. my evo goes down for the winter anyways, so ill just do it then. as well as lots of other goodies!
