Default "world class" T5, is this deal worth it!?

hey guy's hopefully i can get some good advice.

http://denver.craigslist.org/pts/870289458.html

this is a "World class T5" whitch if i remember right are only slightly stronger then regular T5's.


i was planing on a TKO600, but this is a pretty good deal (i think?)



can someone give me some info on these transmission's?




ill be running slicks, 4.10 gear's, launching at around 5,000rpm and spraying a 100-150shot of nitrous out of the hole.


thats the extreme of it, but i need to know if this transmission will hold.


im only asking because it look's like a deal.

if there's even a single doubt that it wont hold to what i plan on putting it through, id rather spend the BIG buck's on a TKO600.


thank's for any advice.

yes, street strip car, but not a DD.

the car is more of a weekend/track car.

so it will be at the track prob once a month, i wont be spraying nitrous though it to much untill i get a cage, but after the cage it will be spraying 150shot from the hole, and launched hard on drag radial's

hard to tell but from the looks of the input tip and him saying it's from a turbocharged mustang??? could be a 4 popper svo tranny...if so go for something else...but first verify the tranny from the tag number, have him send that to you ...either way 700 for a t-5 is a waste, I'd put the money towards a tko!!!
