    So, I got about 2,000+ saved up and need a trans...how should I do this. I want a TEP but cant do the labor myself due to lack of tools and knowledge and Im in Cleveland, Ohio. Should I take it out myself and ship it and get a friend to put it in, or is it possible someone would do a custom order like this, im not trying to spend over 3K going in circles

    And he's a really good guy to deal with. I think he can build you one for all of 1300? And it will be extremely reliable

    oh alright i thought you meant you were planning on staying N/A forever. if you do plan to stay N/A forever there is no need for a built trans. if you do plan to turbo a built trans is the way to go.
