is there any parts to beef up a 2004 tranny? or another one that would work? im looking to supercharge but worried about problems later on.

Detroit Truetrac is what you would definitely need. No one with a Truetrac has reported any failures, including a supercharged Titan.:D
will the valve body upgrade save my tranny from explosion under the 450ft lbs the vortech supercharger claims? or just make it shift better, like a shift kit?

I think markislive had the VB upgrade, didn't help his tranny with his SC.
mark's case was a little bit more extreme than most though to be honest, if he was using the stock piggy back do you think he would have blown the tranny?

I gotta respect that he tried it though! Good guy too, he is who I got my new gears from!
I'd add a secondary air cooler coming off the radiator return. The stock air cooler is 1/2the size of the radiator. Just goes to show how much heat is produced with just the normal operations Nissan saw in it's own testing.

FYI...a No Fear Stillen S/C Titan 4x4 CC Black blew his tranny in Houston 1 month ago. It limped into the dealer for warranty and the dealer refused and sent it to Dallas on trailer where it had been installed. It had the piggyback.
You could have the tranny's internals cryo treated for strength, and upgrade the trans cooler for longevity.
So an upgraded tranny cooler would still be a good idea huh?
And thanks for the info RB I will have to keep that in mind.

An upgraded tranny cooler is always a good idea. I've just been too lazy to do it myself!:teethmast
Stillen sells a small one.
