If you spray it with a big enough shot of N2O as mentioned, you can raise the factory stall at the track and still have a nice DD converter. More power, higher effective stall.

Only thing that sucks about that is losing OD.

The BL Toyo autos have really proven themselves on the last few years, you could run 8's with a Toyo tranny! And they are not that expensive!

alot of good info in here, im understanding the auto trans a bit better. i considered spraying it, i may resort to that as a worst case scenario. and im running a driftmotion 60-1 .70/.70ar garrett

and i have a few friends that run the th400 or 350 in their supras, the th400 is def. the best of all of the options for a daily though. im staying away from BL because my other friend has gone through 4 of their trans's.. all they do is modify a few of the internals. its not like titan where they cnc new oil galleys.. still id trust american transmissions over toyota's
