How strong is the auto box in a Legacy Turbo?

What sort of torque do they pop at with nothing done to the autobox?

no idea

revalved thingy valve applies more pressure to clutch packs, high stall torque converter means boost on line.

I beleive the valve is a cheapish mod if you're considering this on your car.

Nasioc the best place to ask and i dare say you have

Not sure myself BUT I saw a post a while ago for some Tiptronic boxes from the Legacy Newage turbos....

Now that could be interesting!
