hp for a stock 48re
hp for a stock 48re
i have a 07 auto drw i've been looking a putting a diablo powerpuck on it with the 90hp/180tq i also have afe stage2 intake and silverline turbo back exhaust will this be to much for a stock trans?
I have a Smarty set at 90 HP, it's been on my 48re for about 8 months. I was told that was the maximum for a stock trans. I'm not sure if I drive like a normal person, I suspect not, my mileage last tank was 13.4 MPG (and there is nothing but a shell on the truck, it's pretty empty)

I am running the Smarty level 3 (60 HP) and while towing the TC began o slip. They say 90 is the max for a stock tranny but watch it. If you are just jumping on it and racing around town you may not notice it slipping even if it is, but towing with a steady load you'll notice, while locked, the RPM will climb at full power. Be careful or you'll burn it up. Better get a new TC.

Engine is de-tuned to a level that insures a long happy life for the rest of the drivetrain (converter, trans, rear gear). Giving to one (increasing engine output), takes away from the other (decreased trans life).
