    I am also planning on using stage 4 heads and a stattama st5 turbo cam on my extra block for the BIG turbo build. The stage 2 cam ported heads and stock valves arent gonna get me where I wanna go.

    The biggest concern here shouldn't be the heads and turbo ect.. the first thing you should spend the money on is the gmr parts for the trans. Without that all you will have is broken transmission every time you go above 400-450whp and will be limited. The other stuff you can get any time but not the gmr stuff.

    Like I told that guy Will surely replace the 7/8"chain that already replaced the stock chain set when it breaks. The rest of the stuff in the trans has been replaced also if I could find the post from the guy I bought it from I wouldve linked it. Wasnt aware a 7/8 chain was a grenade waiting to go off...?

    Need this, need that. Itll all get done one step at a time.

    Not that it matters but that stuff is all future thought. I have already removed all the stock components for the most parts and replaced them.
    that would include the stock transmission the stock block stock heads its all sitting right next to the car and now im removing the headers to put the power log and ported rear manifold on to bolt the turbo crossover in.

    Im going to remove the impellers. Thanks.

    Doesnt have the details in there anymore. Im pretty sure the headers I just started pulling off of the car I bought from him also. I also bought his ported m90 and LIM. I looked his email up in my paypal and asked him what the trans specs were. Ill post em when he gets back to me.

    Contact GMRBadass for all of your unobtanium trans parts. Not sure what he has left, but he's a good guy. You also should contact Triple Edge Performance for any and all of your trans questions. Mr GMR and TEP won't steer you wrong.

    The m90 does not make a turbo setup worse... it will make it spool faster but overall its just spinning dead weight when you make boost on the turbo side... which typically is instantly anyway.

    It would probably help my fiero alot if i put it on... youll make enough power either way to melt the tires so it doesnt really matter
