s-trim and sd?

Just bought a brand new t-5 from jegs (my other one was shot.. i wanted to get it rebuilt, but the tranny shop wanted 1200 for a rebuild... i said **** it because for 200 more i could just get a brand new tranny and call it a ****in day)... dude ****in raped me for parts and labor... needed a brand new clutch because the tranny was cocked wrong (which is why second gear was thrashed) which caused tranny fluid to leak all over the clutch and all that terrible ****... it was such a sad sight. i was too much of a chicken **** to do it myself. but i got my old tranny back - i'm gonna rebuild it piece by piece and sell it on ebay. it'll take me a million years though - i ****in suck with puzzles :(. anyone know any tutorials about rebuilding tranny's?

Edit: the total job cost me 2400.. ****ing KILLED me. i'm in enough debt with this car to last me a lifetime :(

You're kind of a potty mouth, aren't you Max?
 
The SD is not an issue, you need to run a 1 way check valve in the MAP sensor line so it doesn't see boost or it will act like it hit a wall (Vortech carries these). I had a customer with one on his 88 and it was just fine for years, eventually we swapped cams, heads, intakes and swapped to a MAF set-up.
