Depending how much hp and trq you end up with, a stock T5 may be the weak link...

Definitely don't use a T5 with an engine that hot. You'll grenade that thing in no time. Go with an automatic or TKO definitely.

Some other things you will have to look at is if the motor is makeing that much power...IE 400+, If you plan to add any power adder you will have to change your fuel system...IE injectors,mass air to match, and fuel pump
