The Magnums are beasts even in stock form. The TQ rating isnt really applicable to our lightweight cars since they are typically used in heavier cars. I think you made the right choice in choosing the Mag over an R154 or losing a first born to the V160 price, though I absolutely love the V160.
The setup I bought is way overkill for my goals to be honest but the opportunity was there for me to snag this trans. I know of a few Vette and Camaro guys running this Level 6 at 1k-1.5k for a few years and they love it. None of the guys have had an issue even at those savage power levels. I think my meager 700-ish rwhp final goal will barely tickle this trans setup if I can keep it. About 6-7 years ago I bought an R154 with low miles from a guy when I was living in NY for $450. I bought one of the last MC rebuild kits and all in I was about $2200 for a strong transmission which was going into my 2JZ setup which was setup for 750+rwhp. However the price of those have soared since they are becoming more rare. |
