So it sounds like my front diff is going (horrible screeching noise under decel in 1st and 2nd manual mode) and my 3rd gear is starting to slip once in a while, and upshifting into 4th is more of a slam half the time. I consider a STI 6MT swap but was talked out of it. I'm looking at buying a built 5EAT and so far IPT seems like the most popular option.
Does anyone know what sort of warranty IPT offers? Are there better choices out there for around $4k? In the long run (maybe a few years down the road) I'd like to eventually go up to around 400WHP max, maybe closer to mid to high 300s. Before then, the most it'll see will be a VF52, but I want something that will last and will handle the power when it's time to move on. I really prefer to buy a built trans since the diff is more or less a time bomb at this point and I'd like to have the trans ready at the shop when it gives.
