Ok guys, I know this has been asked before but at this point, its not the "fun" factor I need your opinion on, as I prefer to have a manual over an automatic any day.... but after ALOT of reading, I'm starting to get concerned about how I can keep the M5R2 alive...
Yeah, I can run with the brass blockers, but all I read is how "blocky" the shifting is, meanwhile I'm after a very smooth shift at high RPM's....
There's the T5 option, but because I am on my own with this and I can't fab parts to make the T5 work, and unless I get some kind of after market upgrade to handle the power, the T5 won't last long by the looks of things, I guess its a no go .
Then there's the T56, but the cost and everything... and again thats needs fab work to make it work........
I'm beginning to think I should stick with the AOD, but look at a lentech or art carr option, with some kind of shift kit on it.....
Of course Eggz has stated they can fab anything, so maybe this could be a "money" making concern to support the T5 or T56 and make install kits .
Anyways, your thoughts folks..... I'd like a solution that I can handle seeing as I'm on my own out here.
