Did you build it to 460 over time? Or did you build it that way from the start and haven't changed it? I'm just curious if you remember at what hp your transmissions started getting unreliable.

Before you think it's hp that kills transmissions; it's the torque.
The manual transmission is fragile for anything under 300wtq. After that it gets sketchy, and around the 390-400wtq makes it a ticking time bomb. The auto trans hasnt broken yet and there's upgrades for those as well. The transmission swaps from a 6spd to another 6spd so far are rediculously pricey, yet sequential trans swaps make those look cheap.
