Well I actually reached 105k on my 07 48re. I knew it was coming but the question was when? Anyway it seems as though 2nd gear is spent. I really have not pushed things much just the typical free breathing mods and a moderate Smarty tune that has been there since shortly after purchasing the truck with a bit more than 65k. Anyway I have a couple questions the first being should I waste any time attempting to mess with the band? Or just gather the parts and re-build? I need the truck but it sure would nice to be able to make it through the Winter to save some dough..
So down to the nuts and bolts. I have done some research but I'm sure somone has found better deals out there. Time is not on my side lol..
I am looking to build this myself and have it eventually make at a minimum
of 650/750 hp. It will be a weekend and or fill in driver when the Tdi needs a bit of repairs or upgrades. My old 12v's 47rh was all Goerand but it seems like Dave is starting to pull back from the game a bit.. I want to be able to get the support behind the parts installed. What I mean is the expensive parts such as the converter and such.. I really loved Daves valve body thought it was Awesome!
But this build (for now) may have to be a simple TF od shift kit,or whatever you all recommend. I'm looking to shop out the part and dial in a good price.
Honestly that's because it's the only way I can do it and I need my truck. Where can the great prices be found? What are your recommendations..
I know you all have been here and done this but If I may ask, can you help out a working slob put it all together without breaking the bank...
Thanks much!
