How much power can my stock 5 spd take?
I tried looking this up already with the search option only to find absolutely nothing. I only have a Gibson side exhaust for now but am considering doing some more modding, possibly a blower (If the tranny can handle it). So if you have any info on what kind of abuse these things can take I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

That 5sp tranny leaves alot to be desired anyway---don't push it too hard. JMC would probably be a good one to chime in. I think he's got a 5sp and knows ALOT about these tranny's (from my reading, I think he's pretty much got ZIPPERS on his by now.

You may want to shoot him an email.
