What you primarily using your car for? The T5 can typical handle 400HP if not seriously beaten on or doing 5000RPM drag launches with slicks. Not saying it's a bulletproof transmission, but it's been proven to be a pretty capable trans for a street car at 400HP or below. We can make better recommendations once we know what you plan on using your car for.

And welcome to Stangnet!
