depends on how you drive it...sensibly and it could hold 500 rwhp for a while...drive like an idiot and you can break it at stock power levels...

I don't know about an idiot. I blew up my 3650 after putting in a 04 Cobra clutch. A quick shift into second at 6700rpm that layed down rubber and then second gear was made into pieces. Never powershifted the car.

I think my 3650 had issues though from the get go.

A mechanically no issue 3650 should hold.

Well ya clutch has alot to do with it, an agressive clutch can def break down a tranny faster. And yes driving style has alot to do with it to, sticky tire, lots of time on a prepped track.

Along, the same lines, when people buy upgraded tranny's, do they come with the input shaft or is that a totally different part that requires different parts?

I have been 4yrs without any issues and i have been above 420hp the whole time. I shattered my clutch at the track and broke the cable on the street. I am still running the same trans with no issues.

sometimes they just hold together.

i am hoping mine holds after the tune i should be seeing over 550+ to the wheels. Driving around is fine and roll racing shouldnt be bad either. i heard that i better stay away from hard launches with a stock tranny. hopefully by june i can swap in a built t-56
