haha really, i think it is just better to rebuild the t5 tho. A t-56 is a ton of money, and it still isnt as strong as you could make a t5. As you can see i have completely changed my mind, but there is a kit on that site that will make a t5 hold 600hp for a little over a grand and its easier to install than a t-56

if you want to add a 6th just use a gear vendors overdrive, stronger than the t56 plus you get 5 od speeds

So what does the * mean in this quote? "True Bolt-in synchronized replacement gearsets capable of handling up to 600 streetable * horsepower"
