How to go faster, stop quicker, and turn harder. Chips, exhaust, larger turbos, bigger/slotted/drilled rotors, high performance brake pads, manual boost controllers, performance shocks/struts/springs, airbox mods and more! Also discussion on HID and Xenon lights, aftermarket foglights and other exterior lighting.

96 T-5 2.3 CD Auto going above 300bhp

Post by charlyW »

Why does all the blurb on the internet say not to take a Automatic T-5 above 300bhp ? Does the gearbox die or is the fluid that can't take it? I've just aquired a 96 T-5 2.3 needing a bit of love
