i guess 7AT and a SC would survive.
this is why i cant go boost lol TT kit only and 500whp min would be my target

Yes and no, I believe shumby was the first 7AT with the GTM stage 1 SC and he blew his tranny making the same power as me (400HP/340TQ). He would drive his car hard so it took a beating but honestly anything much over bolt ons for the auto is a ticking time bomb.
It could just be that first time you drive hard and shift 4-5 while still on the throttle and it pops, it really boils down to the extra TQ it seems. I have seen the TT guys with auto with more HP do ok but you have to watch out for the TQ and those upper gears.
