twinturbo with 7spd auto .

Note: I have spoken to a local tuner who allegedly worked on a turboed G37, and apparently the torque converter failed...

Now that is weird, and I don't have all the details (sounds like improper load readings -- which could all be due to a poor tune -- caused the lock up mechanism to go in and out too frequently, eventually leading to failure), but personally I would want to hear LOTS of feedback from the 7AT guys who are boosting to hear how things are holding up before I plunked down several grand on this...

Actually, I'd like to hearback from the MT guys too... just want to make sure everyhting is holding together.

You should email gtm and ask how much can the 7 speed handle. They're pros.
