I am using the Aristo trans, it's the same as the Supra TT auto. So far it's holding up fine, I don't beat on my car too much so that is probably part of it (reliability that is).

If you wanted to do the swap, single turbo etc...with supporting mods and labor. I would say budget in the neighborhood of $8000-$10,000 total. Thats including labor, vvti swap including tranny, necessary supporting mods (fuel pump, piggyback, return line etc...) Single turbo setup (this could vary widely in price depending on what products you choose), exhaust etc... $8000-$10,000 should for the most part take you from stock Gs to Single Turbo Vvti Gte GS That does not account for wheels/suspension/brakes etc...

Let me know and I could work it out I'm sure. If you want to go other ways (turbo without full Gte swap) that could be worked out as well. Just drop me a pm sometime

macd7919: where is "MD/WA"? Washington? Maryland?

How long does the swap, test & tune, and everything take?
