Default What transmission is good for a twin turbo LS engine???

I have been looking at automatic transmissions for a twin turbo LS engine. So far I found Outlaw Transmissions to have the highest rated transmission. They have an automatic tranny rated at 1200 HP and it costs about $2,800. Does anyone else prefer a different automatic transmission???

Here's the link to Outlaws transmission and a picture:

Bowler transmissions

Since your looking at making 1000hp, dont skimp or look for the cheapest transmission around.

Do you want a 4spd auto or powerglide?

What kind of car you building or what kind of use do you plan on getting out of it?....ie street/strip/drag/road course orientated
