Turbo and Tranny

[sageprime1]

I have the base model 2003 RSX with a stage I turbo. I know the stock tranny probably isn't the best with this set up. I need to know what i should do in terms of upgrading the tranny.
I did some research and found LEVEL 10 products to be pretty good, however, I don't know if i should get the PTS kit with a shiftronic, torque converter and billet axels, OR just get a high performance transmission.
If anyone knows how much this process may cost, please share. Not equipment prices, labor prices.

Daily use, i'm running at 5psi, but on the track i would like to use 10psi. I was told not to go any higher until I do something with the tranny. This is what i got off the site: high performance Clutches, Reaction Plates, and Bands; complete sets of Bushings, Washers, and Bearings; high performance Filters; as well as complete sets of seals and gaskets. Level 10 Performance Transmission Systems™ will take your trans from mild to WILD.
PTS™ includes Heavy-Duty, Performance Clutches and Reaction Plates.

I need to know if this is all i need (with a PTS Torque Converter or not) or if i should go with their PTS Transmission.

Why don't you contact one of thier techs and ask them, after all they are the ppl who makes the products you are interested in and they should know more than enough to answer your question. Also just upgrading your tranny is not going to let you run much higher than 10psi, you are going to have to do some internal work for much over that.
