Default A4 Owners with Transgo shift kit please look inside

Are you happy with the kit? Did it help your shifts and make the shifts crisper?

Would you install the kit again?

And, have you had any problems at all after you installed the kit?

Thanks!!

I don't personally have this kit.. but nearly all of my friends cars have them. Makes a noticable difference.

I've had this kit in 2 of my own cars and have done about 18 for friends, from trcks to Impala SS. The instuctions are very detailed and the video is great. IMO this kit is a must if you haave a higher than stock stall. Just my 2 cents.

P.s.: The hardest thing about it is removing/installing the servo on the passenger side of the tranny, it won't come out in one peice, you have ton remove it one section at a time. Other than that it's just a dirty job, but well worth it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Very good mod! I did it myself with help from my son.

Plan every move in advance -- use the install doc, Helms manuals, and any other reference available including the Transgo tech support. Note that the video is not entirely correct for our tranny's.

This is a must do mod for me from now on.

It really shifts fast and hard. Also reduces tranny temp and increases fluid flow and line pressure.

What difference am I going to notice with one?

What does it really accomplish other than cleaning up the shifts? Is it going to improve ET's or just be able to chirp the tires? Just being able to chirp the tires sounds like a superficial gain to me.

I have it in my car. Car shifts smoothly and rapidly. It does cause the tires to bark briefly shifting from 1 to 2 and 2 to 3. It works great with a comvertor. As they say, my two cents. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
