Hhehe, T5's are like a box of chocolate.. you never know what your gonna get..... My original one lasted through Nutural drops, Burtnouts, 5k launches on ET Streets, all kinds of stupid things you could do as a teen, before it let go... My Z class blew up three days after instalation driving home from school on street tires.. I know guys with 500 rwhp with them, and they stay together, others blow up on stock stangs with drag radials.. Save up, buy a tremec once, and sell your tranny for a shifter and a clutch... Just my opinion...
