Transgo Evaluation

[DarkEcho]

Ok got my car back, after 341 dollars total for tranny fluid, gaskets, corvette servo, 2 new solenoids, 2 replacement aluminum piston things to replace the plastic ones that break, and labor, i have my car back

i was a little pissed off that it was more than double the original estimate but hell i got my car back and ive learned a very valuable lesson and now im going to be hella picky about where i go and what i do. anyways. shift kit is awesome. so much faster shifts very crisp and firm... only scary thing is that they say that the tranny is like a grenade and if you **** up by leaving it in first and overrev the engine, you can either ****up the engine or you will blow the tranny apart.. anyways ill prolly just leave it in drive from now on LOL feels so much faster..... now i need to get my muffler on :0

peace and cheeze.......get a shiftkit but only if you can afford to get analy raped..

no i didnt, i am afraid that if i increase the line pressure in the tranny that ill break somethng with the shift kit in there

hmm wondering why you didnt have to get rid of torque management thats whats been holding me back from getting one

From what I understand you don't have to get rid of torque management to get a shift kit. However, torque management will reduce its effectiveness somewhat.

Also, you shouldn't mix any custom pcm tuning that increases the line pressure with a shift kit. Either get a shift kit, or pcm tuning that firms up shifts, but not both.

what about a Jet chip stage 2 and trans go shift kit? that same as PCM tuning

i just have mine installed, quick firm shifts, but i think my tranny slips a little more now..
