So this '90 Daytona ES I have... The transmission is a 604 I'm told. I haven't taken the time to look yet.
Is it a good transmission?
The only reason I'm asking is, my wife really likes the Tona. She wants to be able to drive it... She is actually calling it "her car". That's fine, if it gets her into this "Turbo-Mopar" thing then I think it will be good for me.. and by saying "ME" I really mean "US"..lol
She doesn't want me to convert it into a manual. So If I decide to keep the auto will it hold up to the punishment I'm dreaming I'll be able to give it? Has anyone cracked the code for the transmission ecm to allow for faster shifting, firmer shifts..etc. Is there a shift kit available for this? Higher stall converter?
Does Megasquirt have provisions for the automatic? That is what is going to control the 3.0. I will spend the cash and buy the turbo headers from Ed Kelly. It looks like the favorite is one of the Holset's for the turbo? I would like to see 300whp (give or take).
Or is there another Auto that would be better suited for this application?
Thanks guys
