Question about STI Transmission

20sti06 · 01-20-2007, 08:52 AM

I have a 2006 and I just installed a FP Green Turbo, APS 525 FMIC, 740cc Deatschwerks injectors, Fuel Pump and Cobb Accessport. I am a little worried about the transmission, I heard they were extremely strong. I talked to the guys at Agile Automotive Performance and they are running 2 sti's over 500 hp to the wheel on a stock transmission but I want to hear from other Enthusists that I can trust the STI transmission. Thanks!

It should be the stock block you should worry about, not the tranny.

What they said...

By the way, what numbers did you put down? I'm going for a similar setup on my 04

+1.

How much does a tranny cost?

How much does an ENGINE cost?

I dont remember the numbers exactly but the times I had were 11.215, 11.195, and 11.538 ( messed up on this run )

What would be a good aftermarket block that I can buy?

did you put in a new clutch?

Surprisingly, No I am still looking for a GOOD clutch, I dont want a track clutch because I want my car to be a daily driver and I dont want to have to have a very stiff clutch and I would have to break my leg in order to push it down. If you have any good ideas for a clutch or clutch and flywheel package please let me know.

I dont think I can get into the 10's.....yet. Hopefully when I upgrade my block I will be into the 10's. I think my block will last for awhile but I want to play it cautiously so I will be upgrading within the next 2-3 months.

low 11s in the 1/4? with just fp green? what kind of green?

luSTI · 01-20-2007, 01:08 PM

Very impressive! The stock tranny should hold up fine for you for now.

***JDM-STI*** · 01-20-2007, 03:48 PM

Very impressive and hard to believe. I would really like to see the time slips.

well you should find what numbers you put down first of all, then you can find a clutch.
i have an exedy single plate organic with act lightweight flywheel in mine and it's awesome.

on the times. Scan a slip. what kind of fuel? Could you provide all the #'s on the slip because I would like to see your 60', 1/8th mile time and trap.
