[CoupedUp]

I put a TKO600 in my car from the start (with the 0.82 OD). I had a removeable trans mount fabbed which is a lifesaver. I got a bad clutch disc from the factory and it only took 90 minutes to pull the tranny, replace it and put it back in. Without the removeable mount, you have to pull the engine.

I am running open sidepipes on my coupe, which I think actually makes for a quieter ride inside the car (outside may be a different story). Cruising from Vegas back to SoCal at 2600 RPM, my wife refused ear plugs and didn't mind the sound at all. IMHO, the car sounds much healthier with the open pipes and doesn't have the "rap-rap" sound on deceleration, since it is breathing more freely.

Just my $0.02,
