Hi, Im working together this setup, and I (and some other people of course) plan on rebuilding the tranny ourselves.
*2.4L block
*Oversize valve job on 1g head, port and polish
*evo3 exhaust mani
*GM MAF and MAFT
*3" IC piping
*Custom Intake Pipe
*ported o2 sensor housing, port ex mani
*Evo8 FMIC
*2g TB elbow
*Pocketlogger
*680cc injectors
*255lph Walbro High pressure rewired
*Custom 3" exhaust
*Stock 1g BOV, maybe crushed
*Racing cams, crankshaft, pistons, etc.
*MBC and boostie gauge
*ACT 2600
*14b or 20g, depends

And Im wondering what components I should replace/upgrade in my tranny for it to handle? Im not really sure if the car has a 4bolt or 3 bolt, but it does have the LSD in the rear , with 4 bolts holding the case on? I already have almost all of the listed upgrades, so dont tell me this is a "wishlist". I was thinking somewhat along the lines of:

*Evo3 shift forks
*All new synchro rings, depending on condition
*Double Synchro 2nd gear
*replacement of all worn out seals, bearings, pads

Would that be an adequate strengthening for all the torque this 2.4L will put out? Or am I bound for drivetrain soup? I heard of a way to spray treat the gears to strengthen them on a tv show once, is this cryo treatment?
