he's not so pissed anymore. a turbocoupe guy who runs the same tranny said he's been pushing over 400 lb ft through one for a year straight with no problems.

no worries, and you're right. i don't know dick about fords.

my buddy just bought an xr4ti though. spits rust out the exhaust when the turbo spools up!! hehe...defense mechanism.

look for the post I put up, i never said street tires. They were some worn slicks, and my uncle drove it at the time, he was the owner.
