I know a number of C5ers & F-bodies are happy with the FLP, but can't find anyone using Yank. :confused:

I believe Tom Hall had YANK do his A4. You might want to get in touch with him and find out what he thinks. I know he really kicks the crap outa it with sticky tires and lotsa juice :)

Were are looking at FLP, however, a factor will be turnaround time & availability.
Anyone have Tom's email?

Re: Yank Tranny Upgrade?? (Austrian Vette)
I have heard nothing but good things about FLP, but for me it is also an issue of availability.
Just received an email from Norris Motorsports. He called FLP & they didn'y call back. I have sent FLP emails & never received an answer. :confused:

Re: Yank Tranny Upgrade?? (Sully C5)
Yes, I have the Yank Tranny with the PY 3600 Extreme Converter. I haven't had it long enough to say about the longevity, but so far everything has been fine. Mike does have cores to build, that way you don't tie up a lift.
I got the heavy duty model and when driving normal the 1-2 shift is a little on the hard side, but I don't mind.
