Test pipes are def. recommenced for safety and reliability reasons. Depending on the power level you will need an upgraded clutch. No upgraded tranny if you're shooting for sub 600rwhp, and maybe not even then.. we don't yet know the limits of the stock 6MT. If you have a 7AT then that's a different story. What are your goals?
How much can 7AT transmission withstand from F.I. Application standpoint?

I'm asking since I'd upgraded my g35x transmission via Level Ten. My safety blankets consist of Oil Cooler + the largest Tranny Cooler And although having those apparatus for preventative measures my Transmission still FAILED on me while under 380WHP running a Vortech V3 SC.
