The SC600 is not a ProCharger. The ProCharger models for your car would either be a P-1SC-1, or D-1SC. You shouldn't have any problems with the transmission until you start using sticky drag tires. Bob

Bob is right on.... On Both accounts.... the SC600 is based on a Paxton head unit, and your stock gears will be fine. If you decide you want to run it hard, with a sticky tire, the tranny will likely be the weak point. That said, many guys running our kit go to 3.42s as it seems to work well at the track and on the street. But it is not something that "needs" to be upgraded.
