HI i am getting the tranny in my laser rebuilt because this is the 2nd tranny ive had go bad in it the second one was from a junk yard wont be doing that again but to the point i am going to have the transmission rebuilt i will do all the taking it out and putting it back in i just need it rebuilt. So sience im gonna have it apart i wanna know what i can do to make it stronger. I am already considering an lsd but what else should i have done. I drive my car hard alot and its got alot of power for a n/a car and i will be spraying in the future so i want it to be able to handle it. Im not too keen on doing a turbo tranny swap because i alreay have an act2100 in it thats fairly new and i would have to replace that and that would be getting to expensive. So if you guys know anything to make it stronger and maybe faster ie: different gears from other dsm trannys. all your help would be much appreciated oh by the way does anyone make a lightend flywheel for the 1gen 2.0 n/a i have seen any.
 
My advice is to just get new sychros and get the best fluid you can afford.

Normally people dont damage trannies unless its due to wheel hop or a very aggressive clutch. Only the very very big power turbos are shredding teeth off of gears. Even with nitrous you won't get to that power level.

I have a shep tranny and would recommend just getting a standard rebuild kit from him or having him do it.
