IMO even with the transgo i would not go over 120 HP.

would you say a suncoast stage 3 then, the wife will be pissed

seein as i paid cash for the truck a week ago, but if its necesity i might have to go ahead. what kind of cost installed for a stage 3/4 roughly?

A stage III would allow you to go to 500 RWHP. The install of a Stage III vs IV should be minimal. The shop that did mine charged $980 for the labor.

I turned my Diablo up to 120 when I did my transgo and I have not had any problems with slipping or going into limp. I let the trany re-learn and then I hammered it a couple times and boy-oh-boy. I do not know about 135 but 430 hp to the tires is enough for now. Lord Knows what kinda torque I'm runnin

I just had my transmission serviced so i drained my fluid into a clean bucket and put a lid on then when i was done i still came up 1 quart low. The only problem i had was the two solonoids popped out and rolled and they look alike enough that i could not tell them apart i reassembled and figured i had a 50/50 chance they were wrong. So far no problems seems to be doing fine after 1000 miles.

Took approx. 9 1/2 qts. to top off.

6sp. claims are that it can hold another 125-140 hp, not sure if it's the same for the 5sp.

I would think so since they're both A1000's.

as I stated it does nothing for the 5spds. They have different valvebodies.

where are you guys paying $120 for them.

The place where I order them from charges $80 shipped.

IMHO I wouldnt waste my time on a stage III unless you are absolutley positive you wont want to add tons of power to the truck. Like our farms 02, Im looking at thorwing in a Stage III because I know it will never get anything more than a stock LB7 Cp3 can flow.

The Stage IV is a little more money but once you do it, your done.

I know Eric Merchant Charges $4500 for a stage IV with a 1054,55,57,58,59 converter and 200 bucks less with a 56. He will pull it out build ip up and put it back in for that price. and he can do it very fast.

Otherwise your looking at roughly 3000 bucks for the stage IV with any converter besides the 56. The 56 is again 200 bucks cheaper. Also note the $300 core charge.
