G50 tranny, what can it handle??????????//

are parts available to make them handle more abuse or are there many people out they who build them up?

if i have missed any other info giving ???????'s please let me know

G50 5 speed became an option in the 930 in 89. Before that was the 4 speed tranny. They can handle most any power you throw at them in a 930 that is still driveable. We shove cars out the door regularily with 500-600hp at the crank, and the G50 has had no problems. Most will tell you in a 930, over 600hp is not really driveable on the street.
