How do these EVO trannies respond to mods? AWD is so hard on a transmission I'd imagine, especially as you double/triple the factory power output. What about the clutch too...? :sadance:
Is this 988rwhp going to last more than a thousand miles? :ugh2:
I imagine that the tranny they are using is far from stock, but I think its still a mitsu unit. I do not know.
I think the problem lies in the driver and his/her lack of skills. Lets see a raise of hands of how many people blip the throttle when downshifting to save syncros and clutch.
Or a show of hands to see how many young evo drivers are dumping the clutch out of the hole instead of easing it out.
As far as how long a mitsu awd tranny will last with 1000 hp going through it. Not sure, never done it myself. Call AMS, Buschur or John Shepherd and ask them how long their transmissions last for in a 900 hp car during a season of racing.
