Default Installed a new 4L60E tranny from RPM Transmissions, now my Z is slower???

I got a new transmission from RPM transmissions after hearing nothing but positive reviews. After it was installed, the car is noticably slower - mostly in first gear. When it shifts into second there is kind of a jerk as it seems to catch up to where its supposed to be...

Anyone know what's going on?

yes you need to let the tranny break in.....they set thier clearnces in the 3-4 pack exspecially tight so thiermay be a little drag untill it gets broke in. Take it easy on the tranny for a while let it break in...but if you think thier is a problem you need to call Rodney

A trans really should not make your car slower. Are you shure your starting in first gear? Maybe limp mode?
