I will visit the track pretty soon and we will see whats going on with the tranny...

i have the same tranny setup, but i even took it a step further. i run 255/45/17 tires

the combo of the 8th 4th and taller tires let me do 131-132 in 4th gear at 8k..

at 120 im 4th im around 7500-7600rpms which is right at my peak power so im not just crusing the back 1/8th.... the car is still pulling hard.

I havent been to the track with the new tranny, but this is just street runs. according to gtech i picked up .2 from just the tranny and tire change.

Cheers!
