GTM Valvebody Upgrade

The best mod I've done to my car.

I'm parting my car out but I can no longer afford the payments.

I've had the Valvebody on the car since november 08.

It was Installed by GT Motorsports in SoCal for $1,400(I have the receipt to prove it)

If your interested I'm asking for $600 + your stock valvebody.

PM me for any questions

suposedly it makes the shifts a lot faster and crisper (but actually does something where as the grounding kit does not i assume) this is all from what I've read.. I don't have any facts to back my statement tho

Valbodies Make your car shift a lot faster and harder. It alslo allows your transmission too hold more power. According to GT Motorsports up to 600WHP. It basically gives you the feeling of driving an auto.

If Anyone is interested in getting it from me, you can test drive my car to see how it feels.

I meant to say it gives you the feeling of driving a Manual.

I'm not sure what GTM stated but don't even think on putting 600whp on your stock transmission with just the VB upgrade! the torque will blow the thing apart!
