I don't think you understood, lol.

The 7AT is not a single clutch, or any clutch. It's a regular auto with a torque converter. But I do agree that they did a damn good job


Technically the 7at has two sets of AUTOMATED clutch packs. The low gear clutch pack(1-4) and high gear clutch pack (5-7). It's the high gear clutch pack that's weaker on the 7at and needs to be upgraded with a stronger clutch pack if you want your AT to stage 1 supercharge. Anything more and you need to change both low and high gear clutch packs.

Who sells these higher gear clutch packs? All I thought for supercharging was a tranny cooler and maybe a valvebody upgrade.

Is that why the change from 4th to 5th is slower than the rest?

My car is at 418whp/311tq and isn't slipping yet but I only get into 5th on the track twice and both are very short.

I'd have to research it now. GTM was the go to for this before.

Ehhhhhhhhhhhh... Either way, the 7AT has a torque converter.

Yes. You are running about 58rwhp more than the high gears can handle. I would change the high gear pack or burn more gas in fourth. If your gears are still slow after the high gear clutch pack? The final fix would be the valve body.

Eeeeeehhhhh... I didn't argue that. Just clarifying the clutch thing.

Where can I get the high gear clutch pack?

There are two businesses currently releasing 7AT upgrades, Fast Intentions and Level 10. I think that AAM is releasing a Z into the wild shortly that will have twin turbos and an upgraded 7AT from Level 10. Fast Intentions, on the other hand, has said they will release their 7AT upgrade "soon". I'm not really sure how "soon" is.

I've been kicking around the idea of using a GM transmission, but I'm waiting to see what comes of L10 and F.I. 7AT upgrade first.

Oh I thought you knew something new, waiting to hear how any of those do.

Grammar!
 
I agree with Mr. Frye. (Page 1) Never use "at" at the end of a sentence!

Is there any guys who track their car with 7at? Is it even easy like paddle shifting in 2nd gear to third In a turn.
