    Oh well In that case lol. Well do you have someone to install the trans? Installing the PCM is extremely easy and doesn't cost a dime. Just trying to find you the cheapest route possible.

    If I were you I'd buy both, I'd buy that cheap trans and save it to slowly do a trans build and get a tuned pcm from zap just to get the car moving again

    Yes, buy the tranny. You will be super pissed when you case the tranny after beating on it for a few months. Then be like, "why did I pay for that tune and still end up with a f**ked tranny, why didnt I just pay less for the HD tranny to begin with?"
    The evil LG8 still refuses to die.
