  1. Ben Calimer Stage 4 MT-82

    Damn, I'm sorry to hear that. Well, I sent them an email last night since today makes a week since it arrived. I'm trying to be patient, as I know they are trying to get other customer orders out the door. I don't want to say anything bad as of yet. I work in construction, and every day...

  2. New 8hp s550 project

    Yes, I asked them to acknowledge that they received it and what the next steps were. Their response was yes we have received it....

    This has my attention now....

  4. 8HP70 Conversion... Has anyone done this yet?

    I'm seeing a lot of attention being shown to the 8HP70 transmission, and with all the great things I'm hearing about it, I'm getting interested. Has anyone installed this yet? Has anyone removed their MT-82 and switched over to the 8HP70?

  5. Ben Calimer Stage 4 MT-82

    I haven't gotten that far with them yet. Whoever was emailing me initially was careful but nice. Then the emails got really short and pointed. It was supposed to arrive yesterday, but it was delayed. It shows arriving by the end of the day today. So I'll reach out tomorrow morning and...

    With what I spent, I could have spent just a smidge more and went the T-56 route. But learning lessons the hard way right now.

  7. Ben Calimer Stage 4 MT-82

    I had the same problem. I got the transmission, but the shop didn't want to take my car in until I had everything I needed. I was waiting on my intercooler to arrive, but it took months, and then when it finally came in, I couldn't get an opening in the shop. So mine sat for at least 6 or 7...

  8. Ben Calimer Stage 4 MT-82

    So update as of today. I emailed Calimer and told them what is going on, and they responded to remind me that there is only a 90-day warranty from the day I receive it, but they would get back to me by the end of the day. They responded kind of short and told me to send it back, and they would...

    Depending on what Calimer says, I believe that is going to be my next transmission.

  10. Ben Calimer Stage 4 MT-82

    I've heard guys with stage 2's well into the 800hp mark with no issues. Just seems to be a bit hit or miss.

  11. Ben Calimer Stage 4 MT-82

    I sure hope it's nothing too bad. Did you change the trans oil at your 500mi mark?

  12. Ben Calimer Stage 4 MT-82

    Well, I went from 5th gear to 6th gear at about 75mph and ended up with a blown transmission. I wasn’t even in it all the way, I was only on wastegate spring so no more than say around 500whp. Definitely disappointed right now.
