TCI has rolled out a new, beefed-up version of Ford’s 4R70W automatic transmission for newer Mustangs, and it’s rated for upwards of 650 hp. There are various internal modifications and upgraded components throughout.
Here’s the release from TCI:
TCI® Super StreetFighter™ Ford 4R70W Transmission
Direct replacement performance transmissions feature street/strip automatic valve body and greatly improved internal components
The Ford ’96-‘04 Mustangs are a hot platform with drag race and high performance street fans. TCI® announces the perfect upgrade for these high horsepower vehicles with their new Super StreetFighter™ Ford 4R70W Transmission, which is compatible with up to 650 hp applications. Available in versions for both ‘96-‘97 model and ’98-‘04 model 4.6/5.4-liter Ford Mustangs, these transmissions incorporate our Trans-Scat® Valve Body Kit for firmer, more positive and more immediate shift control.
Key to the improved performance with the TCI® Super StreetFighter™ 4R70W Transmissions are the addition of Alto Red Eagle Clutches and Kolene Steels, which can’t be found in other brands of aftermarket performance transmissions. In addition, TCI® includes a Red Eagle
Overdrive Band to increase durability and extend the transmission’s overall life. The transmission also features the advanced Heat Dissipating Technology™ (HDT) Coating to ensure cooler operating temperatures. As is standard practice with all TCI® transmissions, each one is triple-checked as part of the building process and includes testing on the TCI® computer dynamometer for correct hydraulic and valve body readings to avoid leaks and deliver all-around supreme performance.
