Default Latest News at Jake's Performance!

We will soon be dyno testing all transmissions before they ship.

We will also be adding a couple of transmissions to our lineup that we have cut from shipping in the past.

200-4Rs being one. Not applicable to most Tech members but maybe for your other projects

We've got some new TH400 products coming out soon as well.

Very nice! The transmission dyno is an awesome quality control measure. Definitely a great addition to any great transmission shop.

Appreciate the props Jeremy and Andy.

I'm excited and the employees are as well. It insures we are sending out a quality product and it will also help tremendously with some of our development work.

I've got some more transbrake ideas to test for the TH400, TH350, and even 4L60Es.
Once we get past the initial testing of the 4L60E design it may be something you guys will be interested in. I don't plan on building many of the 4L60Es so you guys will likely be the main market.
