Depends on the route you take and what computer your car already has. Ideally you want to be able to command a throttle blip and a shift cut signal. If you are DBW on a factory computer, the throttle blip is tricky. The shift cut is simply an ingnition cut.
If you can get that handled, this is what I'll have in it.
Transmission (GS36D7SG): $750-1350
DKGEcu Controller: $1100
DKGEcu Harness: $550
Domiworks Transmission adapter and hub: $1050
Transmission Parking Lockout: $50
Transmission Cooler adapter: $70
Transmission Cooler and lines: $300
BMW Yoke to 1350 adapter: $250
Transmission fluid and Filters: $350
Totaled up: $5000 ish with the factory clutches (Good to like 750 fw ftlbs).
Spec R clutches are good to like 950 ftlbs, but theyre $2600 a set.
It basically costs the same as a T56 Magnum swap with similiar power holding ability stock.
Spec R it costs about the same as a built, faceplates T56 magnum swap, and will hold about the same power.
The difference is, when you blow up you built T56 magnum, you need another $2500 rebuild. When you blow up one of these, you rip it out and put another $750 trans and fluid in it.
