flex plate and cooling helps but this tranny still isn't too strong. quick and hard shifting hell yea but it's strength is it's weakness if you want to go big power.

I want to look into how andy found a torque converter upgrade. haven't seen many if any online.

if you're stayin NA then a flex plate and cooling should solve any future issues.

I ordered the torque converter and valve body upgrade from Level Ten.

Level 10 has 2 upgrades.
Build 1 is good for 700H & 750T
Build 2 is good for 1,000H & 1,200T
Valve body & converter upgrade (parts) are good for 700H,the rest of the trans.?

It appears that all i can dig up on the RE7R01A (7sp.A/T) is 295Torque max.
So;with that being said-my 275H & 243T is within specs.
So Forced induction would require a Tranny overhaul/Build.
nice to know.
Manual Trans. Z's lose about 15% between crank & wheels
A/T Z's lose about 17%
That mean's i'm maxing out my trans. w/stock HP & TQ (275+hp & 243+tq @ wheels)
interesting.

Yeah, it's basically maxed out from factory and that's why I upgraded my transmission.
