The only advantage that an n/a tranny has, is that it is geared lower...which dramatically decreases top end, but provides killer accelleration. Some will say that the turbo tranny is stronger (I dont know how much truth there is in that). Ive been running an n/a tranny for a while and its held up to my 50 trim t3/t4. But whichever tranny you use, you have to use the clutch and flywheel that goes with it, otherwise your starter wont hit the flywheel right. The n/a flywheel is a few inches smaller in diameter than the turbo one.

i dont see why mitsubish would make a non turbo tranny weaker and use weaker matereals than a turbo tranny. there both made from mitsu not an independent tranny maker. there both factory stock
i cant wait to get my turbo engine in my car and see how much torque the non tranny has with the turbo engine. my guess it will be better for the 1/4 mile if i get good traction
and use the nt axles too
