Default BT question

So I'm looking to gt28 on my 01 1.8tq. My concern is that I have a TIP. I have the supporting mods (exhaust, fmic, testpipe etc..) for the turbo but I want to know if my tranny can handle the extra power. I don't exactly know the specs on the torque converter. Would it be better for me to just go k03s/k04 hybrid? Thanks!

Yeah you definitely need to tone it down and send me th BT lol. Nah you've got nothing to worry about as long as your tranny is in good shape. Unless you bought that first line. You may want to look at the torque converter and see what's available and of course make sure you have the brakes and suspension to handle it.

Ive got stoptech brakes, kmaxx coilovers, new coilpacks, ngk plugs, atp testpipe, flowmaster 40 series muffler, mbc, greddy s bov (recirc), intake with heatshield, new maf, fmic. Anything else i should do? What all else would I need for the bt other than some 440c injectors and a FPR?
