Cool Which tranny should I go with?

Hey all,

So the question I have right now is this, i have a 2001 GT with just the CAI, on my way home from a nice overseas deployment and trying to figure out what Tranny to go with... I have plans on stroking the motor after the summer is over and want a trans that can safely handle 500-600 N/A horsepower. The car has the T-3650 in it right now. Does anyone know of any performance rebuild kits or should I go with another trans? Thinking about the T-5/45 type of set up... also wondering what is out there for performance upgrades... can anyone help before I get home and have to stall the project????

Promotion makes a stout 3650... so I hear.. Also, a TKO 5/600 is another option
