I know, I know. These trannys wont handle much extra power... but I wanted to present a question..
I've always been intrigued about these springs.. and increasing from 1.2 - 1.7 bar would be fun. Heres the ebay add. Does anyone think I'll harm the tranny any? I've installed just about everything possible so nothing will fail (and the tranny works so smoothly now with 100k miles on it)
Thanks!

Period.

If you don't care about your auto tranny and you want to put in a new one, then do it. Tell us how long it took to blow the tranny:)

There was a guy here that posted that he boosted his automatic equipped junker car just to see what would happen. Guess what. He blew the tranny pretty quickly. However, he did state that he had a fun time until it blew!

I like the car too much. But geez... you guys make me so paranoid about this tranny. I bought the car for under 1000.... but put over 3000 into it just to PREVENT things from going wrong, and to fix up other stuff. (grin)
It's okay. you guys are good to me and I trust everyones experience. Oh,and Steve, I've been talking to Chris at force4auto and he's sent me a few things pretty cheaply. He said you were pretty cool. Ciao
