RJ MFG Supercharger kit Feeler...

So you think the clutch packs (in addition to a trans cooler) are the most important upgrade over the trq converter or flex plate for a car running high 300s/400ish

I agree, outliers notwithstanding, flex plate, torque converter, valve body, clutch plates, transmission cooler. It's my understanding (and maybe it's just favorable marketing) that the upgraded clutch plates take someone with experience to install them due to the extra thickness of the plates? Which is why lots of guys have their transmissions shipped directly to Level 10. The valve body is matched to the TCU so you need to use the one on your car, again necessitating shipping it out.

It's kind of why I was interested in the "B" revision transmission. At least it's rated at 400lb ft. out of the box. Figuring out which cars/SUV's it came on has not been easy though.
