doin a tranny swap again
 
when i got my car it was stock last summer. the a4 in it was gonna need a rebuild. so i got another a4 off of ls1 tech, did all the normal bolt ons, long tubes, ls6 intake, o/r y with dual cut outs, tci 3600 converter, removed egr, smog and all the bs, then 3 weeks later sitting on 93 in traffic i hit the gas to move and it's like i was in N. let it cool down and i could drive again, then like i was in N again. so i said fuck it and put it on a trailer and parked it at my house till now, i got the itch for it again and now have a performabuilt level 2 on it's way. after that is in with a cooler that i didn't do before, and install my air/fuel guage and trans temp guage the car is going to slowhawk for a tune which i never did after my converter install or anything i removed from the car. so now i can maybe make it to a meet again, 1st and last one i was at was the red robin in millbury and then the cruise to the dunks in worcester. Hope to see you all soon

Yeah sadly that was probably a self inflicted transmission failure

ya i know it was my own fault for not putting in a cooler, i knew better. but the fucking car ripped so with a real a4 in it and a tune for what i have done to the car it should be a whole new monster for me to enjoy
