need help beafing up my trans...

ok so i have a pretty good motor build up going on and my trans is out right now so i figured i would go ahead and get s jump on the destruction path try to make my trans stand up to the power i will be putting out.

i do have stage 2 axles so i dont have to worry about my stockers snapping, i already have the centerforce DFX clutch and flywheel kit, and i do have the LSD trans...

so i have everything outside built up what can i do about the inside?

not looking for some crazy build but just some added strength and durabulity from my trans....
would a better fuild halp at all too????

thanks for the help guys!

About the only "inexpensive" thing you can do to improve the longevity of your transmissions internal would be to get them cryogenically treated. The "cryo" treatment itself should run anywhere between $350-600. But youll need to disassemble and rebuild your trans to do this. Expect to pay something on the order of about 8hours of shop time for the tear down and reassembly alone.(removing and installing trans would be seperate)

If I searched "Cryo" on this site would it tell me what Cryo is exactly and what it does?

If you choose to stick with the f35 that is really your only option.

with respect, go find another 2.0 litre car that produces the sort of whp you get, and can even hope to handle the power. It sure isnt a product i know of...so be happy, go to OTTP for cryo or microfinishing, or whatever, and use care with the transmission as you are driving a car with almost 100% more torque that you build into it than intended by design. Thanks for listening.
