    Default TransGo shift kit installed, and opinions

    I had mine installed today. Just for any of you in Florida, we have a guy who does them for $120, but you have to bring over some Bud Select in the bottles, some brake cleaner spray, and a box of blue shop towels LOL. This kit is amazing, it shift so quickly. There almost isn't even a shift anymore LOL. It jerks you back a bit in your seat and the shifts are quick and deliberate. It is very driveable at normal acceleration. You notice it on the normal driving shifts, but not very much. Mainly, at low acceleration, you don't have the jerk, just a quick shift. Anyone on the fence about this mod needs to do, and we have a good installer here in FL

    Need 9 qts of trans fluid,

    Sounds awesome! Will it bark the tires when shifting under WOT?

    What part of FL and how long does it take? I'm due a tax refund in a few weeks. It could be a good excuse to cruise down to FL.

    Central Florida near Orlando. I did not bark the tires, but it supposed to be more aggressive shifting when your manually shifting, and I didn't try that yet. Takes about 4 hours

    I'm sorry, I was wrong about my explanation with this kit, its not as good as I thought.....Its 100 fucking times better lol. Driving it in D is great, but man, try shifting this thing manually, and your truck will feel like it is seriously going to get airborne and leap off the ground in the 1-2 shift. No exaggeration whatsoever, it literally leaps forward on that first shift, it caught me off guard. I had heard it was more aggressive feeling in manual mode, but I didn't think it was like that. Honestly, just the leap your truck does after the 1-2 shift should help 1/4 mile times, much less the fact the shift time is cut down by 1/4. This IMO needs to be the first mod done for anyone who is going to start adding a few mods to their truck.
