Yes it is different. But it just has larger planetary gear sets. Same clutch count as any 5l gear box. You can look all this up in the epc. So there is no guess work. Blue tops do not increase the tq capacity of the transmission.
And of course transmissions break. They fail all the time from normal use at 100nm of tq. But my point is that in these cars and the weight they are and the power that they make and the tires that they have on them. No one here is going to break one from tq input.. If anyone on this planet has done more abuse to one of these than me, I would be surprised. And it would have to be intentional. LIke 6k neutral drops over and over until it broke.. Even then I do not think that one would fail before you broke all your axles and drive shaft and differential 100 times.
