Level 10? Are there really 10 different discernable stages of trans development for an Audi?

[Tremor14]

dont you have a spare transmission?

tuck! what up foo

I did but sold it to a friend that needed a trans quick down in Austin. Tey are readily available though. As soon as I posted my trans was bad I had 5 people PM me to tell let me know they had one for cheap. Seems everyone is doing six speed swaps now. I was halfway thinking of getting one that only has 18k on it for a grand but knowing i want to have the power I have gotten used to I really think I would be better off just getting the $6500 Level10 one.
I have a line on some killer turbos for a great price and would need the better trans to handle them anyway.
Dude is making 670 at the wheels through the Level10 trans and those turbos and over 800 awtq. I would be content with those numbers.

Good god, I was pissed at having to pay $2300 for a stage 2 build on my trans am.

Don't let naynay see this.

more like dont let anyone else see that i saw it, amirite?!

[LaserSVT]

Why? I could not care any less what he thinks. LOL
I pushed its limits and broke it. I can afford to fix it any way I want and will. Shouldnt be down more than a month as it takes a bit to get the trans.

Found the trans limits. 480 awtq is fine but 540 is not. LOL Believe the input shaft is split. Was my fault, car was in normal mode and an SRT8 caught my attention so I rolled into it right as it was commanding a shift so it slammed into second under full boost and then lost all gears.
Oh well, shit happens. Debating of going with a fully built auto or just turning it down a bit and rebuilding the original and just enjoy the car as is. There is also the manual conversion but I like the auto so I will probably just get the Level10 trans so i can go ahead and put the bigger turbos on. I knew I was pushing the stock trans past its known limits so it wasnt surprising just embarrassing because I shouldnt have rolled onto it at that speed without having the trans in tip mode.

Ah, nice fresh rear brakes.

They are based in Dallas.

$120ish each no matter if its peeling, slightly bent, curb rash or cracked.

Does that company service DFW or are they more "local"?

How much to get the wheels done? I like the idea of picking up and dropping off.

Ernesto comes by on Thursday. I canceled last time but then with the rain and warm weather it grew freakin quick. I am also about to have the driveway redone. Sick of the uneveness. lol
And that dead shit in the background is a vacant lot and the county does not take very good care of it. But its a quiet and safe Mexican neighborhood so i deal with it.
