So quick question, just figured I would post this here: A few weeks ago under light load in traffic a sound developed that sounds like the driveshaft is smacking the bottom of the car. I just figured the trans bushings were a little soft so I just had plans to change it. Last night I went out to a meet and on the way home I was driving it pretty hard with a few other friends (in different cars). After about 15 mins of driving it hard we came to several lights and almost every time I heard this noise and discovered it was my first to second shift. I took it easy for the rest of the journey (about 20 mins) and when I got close to my house I tried to make the noise happen again and couldn't. I checked the trans fluid (at night so it was hard to see) but it looked like it was super low which was weird because I checked it the other day and it was high. I checked it cold this morning at it was super high, so I drove it to work normally and checked it when I got there, right in between L and F on hot (I am checking it while the car is running in P after engaging each gear). I do have the F1 VB, so my question is this; is my trans starting to go? Should I do a TCU reset? Or is it just that my trans fluid temp levels get too hot during aggressive driving? (I just bought a trans cooler under that assumption) I also figured it would be in my best interest to change the fluid even though it was just done about 10k ago. Thanks for the insight

Sound clips are coming out like a$$, damn go pro. iPhone vid. Decent vid. I still don't think it does it justice. Click to play! Vid goes from no cutout, to cutout, back to no cutout. http://i1110.photobucket.com/albums/h443/mwm5094/th_c2e36774.jpg -

No vids . If you ever heard an open dp, it sounds exactly the same. No leaks at all and works flawlessly. Been on derr about a yr. Catless is a tiny bit louder, not a huge deal. What is your CBE? +1 My name is Mark. You can follow me on twitter #atjerseyshore No retune is necessary. I passed emissions so imma throw it back on the car and take some vids for ya. You can ponder in the meantime and if you ever decide we can just meet up for a swap. This is correct. AT -

Its only a **** hair below the DP, the angle of the pics make it look like it sags a lot. But it has been scraped a few times, no biggie though. -

Thinking about trading my catless Cobb DP with qtp electric cutout for a catted DP with some cash. Cutout alone ran me like $400 with install. http://i1110.photobucket.com/albums/h443/mwm5094/Benchmade%20Proper/CutoutonDP2.jpg http://i1110.photobucket.com/albums/h443/mwm5094/Benchmade%20Proper/CutoutandnoRes.jpg http://i1110.photobucket.com/albums/h443/mwm5094/Benchmade%20Proper/Completed2.jpg -

TCU is completely learned (at least I think it is). The difference is unreal, before getting this I was looking at your videos and was thinking, "there is some difference but whats the big deal?". It is super aggressive and shifts are unreal quick. Couldn't be happier.

I didn't think you were supposed to WOT for a while?

IDRVSLO and I got everything in last night. Did the trans filter in the process too. Regular mode drives normally, put about 100 miles on it (1/2 highway) 1-2 seems normal still, 2-3 & 3-4 seem perfect, 4-5 seems normal. All downshifts still seem normal (Normal meaning like they were stock before the VB swap). Hopefully the learning process works all of these things out. Reset TCU right after install as well. 7 qts. seemed to be the sweet spot for me. All in all, if all of the shifts act like the 2-3 shift, I should have done this a long time ago. Sooooo sweet.
