Yeah it causes extra wear. Especially on the torque converter. The pressure control soleniod has gone bad and increses the trans pressure line to max. Or the cluthes are worn down but the pcs is more likely. You need to have a trans shop scan the codes for you. Or the dealer if its under waranty.

A full ported and polished build a cam and a big *** turbo.

Edit: sorry I read that as 7 second quarter mile. Hahahahaha!

Mine is about 7.5. I have custom exhaust and a hv3 insert from zzp. A few other things maybe but thoes are the big ones.

Hahaha that would be awesome. Okay that sounds simple. My plan is hv3, dp, intake and pcm. I put some thrush welded mufflers on and it sounds pretty good.

Gotta get some pics and videos up. I have yet to hear a monte with as good quality as my borlas. But a lot of them are louder and sometimes that's nicer.

Got the subs amp and head unit in. The stock speakers are amazing especially with the factory amp that helps a lot. So I don't think I'm going to change them unless they blow. Still need some performance adders. How do hids look in our cars? Is it worth it?
