well....found the weak spot finally.

stock WRX tranny+about 400crank hp=snapo the clown.

no first gear anymore...now it is time to get the dogbox gears i was looking at.....

funny...i figured i would explode the factory clutch before i blew the tranny.

was going to be in the 7's today, too....dammit!!!! i had a lot of tuning to get done, and by the looks of things, i woulda been there. oh well...always next yar
