Also, it says "Please note- The Transgo Shift Kit is NOT a performance shift kit! If your intentions are firmer performance feel shifts then please contact us for additional tips and instructions."


so if thats the case...why buy it? i mean when i don't have my nixon pcm with maxed out trans settings, it's a sloppy mess. so i'm sure it would help but i thought the whole point of a shift kit is to firm the shifts...

i contacted dave, he stated to buy the 85 kit, because even though i wont use everything, its still cheaper.

he also sent me extra springs and spacers so i can get a firm shift. he said out of the box it will just be faster. but with everything he sent it will be faster and firmer.

so with the kit theres a fast shift and a firm shift and i can pick one or the other out of the kit i receive?

if you just order the kit, you will have faster, smoother shifts. if you contact him before it ships, he will throw in instructions on springs and spacers to set up a fast, FIRM shift. you just have to specify.

ah okay. well i'll contact him then. did he specify what exactly changes? does he send a different spring and spacer or is it instructions on modifying it?

instructions, and he said theres already a spring in it i wont be using, and thats the one i should install in the 1-2 accumulator. ill post a review when i get it installed

do that! either way, if i order one, i'll email him. i like teh firm

will do, ill post a before and after of accel with RPM guage. :P

First thing I put on was a Thrasher shift kit. I like the setup and I still have the extra springs and instructions in case I want to go firmer.

Ran it through the carwash, filled it up, turned over 160,000 miles.....



And installed this......

didnt do a damn thing to my car today, get at me bro

It's what the car did, not what I did. It got me back and forth from work, then hauled four of us out to dinner and some karaoke or however you spell that crap. On the way back with me as the DD, I drown out the noise of chatty Kathy in the back seat with some extra decibels of "White Wedding". What a hit that was.

Threw my suitcase in the backseat, drove it to work. 20 miles away from rolling 117k.
And then come 5pm, I'll be east bound and down, loaded up and truckin to Columbus.

I don't like Wisconsin. But that could be because every time I've been there its been middle of winter and below zero temps and ice, no bueno lol.

Snow? It's 70*
I guess skiing in a tshirt wouldn't be so bad.

I'm headed to Ohio Beef Expo for a much needed vacation.
