Ohh, I wish you guys could see what I put my 01A through.  I've
honestly started wondering if I don't have a freak transmission based
on what lots of people have said about these.  I've drag raced it I
don't know how many times with launches consisting of tire smoking
4500 rpm 25psi clutch dumps(350-400ft/lbs of torque now days).  Why do
I do this, well, because it's either smoke the tires or the clutch,
and I like the smell of rubber better.

Dennis, go with what's in the car, get it running and have fun with
it.  You can always fix it later right?  I'm guessing it will hold up
just fine.  I'd suggest running redline or some other really good
tranny oil.
