Is the 6speed any good in the Gs? What would you recommend if you were going for about 1000awhp? E-gear or 6speed?

I´ve read that too. Im not much of launch guy anyway but something tells me that the 6-speed would hold up better though?

With that kind of power (1000awhp on racegas) does companys like UGR and heffner rebuild the trans to make it stronger or is it still stock?

I doubt they would keep it stock. They would need a new transmission to handle that kind of power. Go for 6 speed.

You don't know what you are talking about. They keep the stock tranny. That's why everybody goes with the manual, otherwise they'd be replacing clutches quite often.
