It's hard to go wrong with the Yank SS3200 if your car is a daily driver.

Unfortunately there is no way of telling if a T/C is good by just looking at it. Unless you know the car it came out of....

Program your fans to come on at lower temps. Program your part throttle shift points to be at slightly lower speeds. You might want to lockup in OD at a lower speed also.

You are correct. A high stall T/C is the best bang for the buck mod on an A4 (excluding NOS). A good T/C will improve your acceleration at most any speed. A tranny cooler is a good idea, and cheap...

If you just want better performance without going too crazy. Simply install a Yank SS3200 T/C instead of the Z06 H/C. Your car with an SS3200 will easily out perform a car with just Z06 H/C and the...

DTE was one of the first shops to install bigger gears in a 2.73 differential. Since Motive makes the gears for all C5 diffs. they should know what they are doing. But given a choice I would get my...

You don't have an 11 sec. car with your mods. However as mentioned on a very cool day with low humidity you MIGHT get an 11 sec. time slip.

Yank does not make an SS3000 T/C. If you are talking about the SC3000 that T/C is for FI applications. If you are talking about the Stealth 3000 vs. the SS3200. The Stealth 3000 is a heavy (50+ lbs)...

Ported LS6 heads & a Fast Intake would be nice but not needed to run the 11s. With a VERY MILD cam suitable to run with the stock T/C you can forget about running the 11s N/A. You need a good high...

Just reprogram your fans to come on sooner. And add a tranny cooler and you will be fine. Of course if you constantly beat on your car that's another story.:cheers:

Don't waste your time and money on the Yank Stealth 2800 or 3000.

If you are really at 2200 RPM at 75 MPH you probably have 3.42 gears. I would get a Yank SS3200 or SS3600 T/C instead of swapping gears. A T/C will give you much more bang for the buck than just...
