Shift Kit Owners, chime in.
geight,
I love the trangsgo kit. I had the ZZP kit in my old trans and barely noticed a difference since that one only comes with spacers. The transgo comes with springs too.
For those of you concerned with what the wife thinks, DON'T. This kit with making it shift faster also makes it shift smoother, that's right I said smoother... She'll actually like it better, my wife does. I can't say enough good things about it. It IS the best kit I have used.
The dealer will not take the accumulator apart to inspect any springs. They all look like a factory parts to begin with. I would not worry about any warranty. It's not like you are putting on a catless downpipe where they'll see it in plain view. You'll be fine.

Does it become smoother over time or was it like that for you to begin with? Because mine its like that, I've only had it in for about a week.
It became smoother when the new fluid had time to break in. Do you have the line pressure higher with a tune too? If so, you may want to scale it back a little bit. I have both the line pressure raised with a tune and the transgo shift kit. I wish I could give you a ride in my car so you could see how it feels.

Oh, well that explains it. You have a fresh rebuild which nothing has broken in yet. It should shift like a truck for the first 1000 - 3000 miles until she breaks in. Almost like a young prostitute; they need time to break in. Tight at first, looser after awhile.... lol...
Just give the trans time to break in. It'll be fine.

Unfortunately, I won't get to install it (or my other parts in my deployment pile of goodies) until the end of May, when I am back from Iraq!
Same here! I emailed Dave at TEP last week and he set me up with the TransGo shift kit, a Hayden tranny cooler, and all the necessary gaskets. Very cool guy to deal with and very helpful in answering questions that to some people, may have had obvious answers.
