Ever thought about TMZ in Wisconsin? I know he's been helping with boostin demons stuff

Havnt really looked into tmz yet but just did and their stage 5 dogbox is basically exactly what i am looking for, with the upgraded 300m output shaft. I will definantly have to get in touch with them !

You do realize that the dogbox stage 5 from tmz is OEM gears that are just faceplated for 4k?

Yes I do. Worth it or not ? I am still doing my research before I make a final decision, any suggestions and input you guys think I should do just post away. I have been reading more on their stg 6 actual ppg dogbox from tmz and could just bite the bullet on that and get it done and over with. Add the boostin 300m output shaft and also think i would swap out the ppg spool for a 4-spider center differential with the Unbreakable Beyond Redline Peformance Custom Hardened Chromoly 4-Spider Center Differential Cross-Shaft.

Its up to you I was just pointing out that it's faceplated gears by Liberty. Liberty charges just about $1000 for putting dog engagement on 1-4 gears, sleeves, and hubs. So for an extra 3k on top doesn't seem worth it to me.

Makes sense. Thanks for the heads up, it totally went right over my head !

Just message tim Zimmer and hear what he has to say.

Good thing is he's almost always checking in on tuners and ecmlink. Even if you don't go with his stuff he's always trying to help.

Glad to get involved in this one! If you drag race and make a lot of power, the only solution for a manual transmission in a dsm is the PPG gear set. A faceplated gear only help with shifting not the strength of the gear. Factory gear sets fail at anything over 700whp. I was replace the factory 4th gear after 30 to 40 passes, then I made more power, and broke them in a hand full of passes.

That settles that then full ppg dogbox it is. I wont be making alot of power right away probably 600-700 with my 6062 but will work my way to above that 800 mark at some point.

Also been looking at fuel pumps and have my mind set kindof on the weldon 1100-a with a 10an feed line and 8an return. Any other options you guys might have or think of something just let me know !
