I have a 2g and I am having a 1g engine and head swap, I have a few questions

what is the best tranny fluid for a 500 hp car

does a greddy bov flow enough for 500 hp or do i need a hks super sequencial

does the 2g greddy uicp fit on a 1g

thanks guys!
 
The tranny fluid i'm not sure on, but i'd go with Redline. Neither of those BOV's will work on 500hp. Unless you use 2 of them. Look at the HKS racing BOV. The Greddy 2g UICP fits on a 2g, and the greddy 1g UICP fits on a 1g. But i'm sure you could rig somethign up.
 
I'd go with BG Syncroshift. Anything synthetic should help, but with that much power i would get somewhat of a built up tranny, DSMs dont like trannys. You are fwd so they are a bit easier on them, do you have an LSD?

The BOV would depend on the boost. A crushed 1g BOV works fine on our mid 400hp fwd street shop car around 25psi. If anything i'd just go with the greddy type-r. You dont need two, just a decent sized one, after the TB closes, no matter how small the bov, the air is getting out of there in a hurry.
 
i have a quaife lsd, do you know how many psi the type r can handle, thanks for youe help
 
i called rre and they said the best would be a tial bov, its 50 mm, supports over 50psi and is only about $240!!!
