    I have a 01 GT Special edition and i had the dreaded intake fixed and the guy told me that my car doesn't shift into third gear. I noticed this a while ago and i thought i was going crazy. When im on the highway and doing 70-80 my rpms are in the 3 1/2's and go up as the speed goes up. Does anyone know what could be causing this. The car runs perfectly fine by the way lol.

    it means you have to crack open the transmission and replace the 4th clutch, aka 4th gear

    In 97-02 year 4t65e's have a weak 4th clutch. There are ways to help the issue, like changing the 4th gear parameters with a tuner. Get a hardened 4th from trannyman's website, i hear these 4th clutches can be replaced in the car, its just a pita.
