dwolson2 Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Shit...for $350? Maybe that cheap because you'd be a guinea pig. If thats the ending price though, it would be sweet! Also, Did we decide whether or not the resistor is a go/no go also the requested torque? Is it making a difference or not? I tow a descent amount, and i really want to keep bad stuff from happening. Plus I would like the shifts to stiffen up a bit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClimberDHexMods Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 ^^^ No one has done thorough testing on either, so you're not going to get an objective answer here. No one really publically started getting into this until very recently.

utc_pyro Posted October 31, 2010 Author Share Posted October 31, 2010 I orderd a resistor for some one to test with. When it gets here, and shipped to him we'll know what it does on the stock valve body. Also got some intresting software to look over, I'll let you guys know if I can pull the flashing info out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPjeep2002 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Yes. We need a Transgo kit. Someone get on it! I'd be willing to shed out a few dollars to support the cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OGHK87Jay Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 (edited) Yes. We need a Transgo kit. Someone get on it! I'd be willing to shed out a few dollars to support the cause. I live like 25 minutes from transgo and I'd be willing to be a guinea pig. Since my tranny is pissing me off of hard shifting. I'll contact them in 2 weeks about it after I finish my midterms. Maybe I'll pick up a floating vb (btw where is the link for the floating vb?) or drop off my whole car and let them take out the vb and modify and test it when I leave for vacation in december. I'll keep you guys updated on this! Need to accumulate some money of my own too to get this done of the poor college student's way haha. So if anyone else would like to contribute to this guinea pig experiment let me know. Most likely I may just drop off my whole car becuase I dont have that kind of money to buy a extra vb. If anybody would like to contribute to me for this experiment please state which you'd like to contribute to floating vb or the other.

If shifts are too firm, porting a valve body won't help. Might hurt. Are you the original owner?

Are you the original owner? Yea I'm the original owner and I'm on rallitek stage 2 tune via Cobb AP and I have a rallitek race tranny bushing. I've been reluctant to put in my tru-cool 4454 tranny cooler so I dunno if that may be the cause of the problem. I'll get that put in in 2 weeks. Well then what would be your suggestion that might be the problem to the tranny? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

underground000 Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Does the 07 have the 1st or 2nd version of the VB/TCU anyone know? I guess the easiest way to test is does it have downshift rev match... Needed information for Transgo, post answer here linky 5eat downshift rev match:) Powder coated wheels: completed:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lgtftw Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 My 07 up shifts and down shifts for me, does that help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbone Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 05-06 no upshift, no rev-match 07-09 upshifts, rev-matches 07-09 had revised mechanicals and TCU reflash. At the very least the valve body is somewhat different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwolson2 Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 Where can I check that? check your transmission fluid right behind your engine on the left side(driver) Its down in the bay a bit and my arm was always getting cut up(before I took off the engine cover and put it up in my garage). As for the tranny cooler mod, I don't remember where or who said it, but it was in multiple places when I was looking at it. I actually did it when I was stage 1. Its really easy to put in too.

ClimberDHexMods Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 Trans cooler should do nothing for most people most of the time. Perhaps I'm spoiled because Amsoil ATF removed a lot of temperature-related shift variation [CENTER][B][I] Front Limited Slip Racing Differentials for the 5EAT now available for $1895 shipped, please inquire for details!
