Not enough interest, might update when i have access to more tools and a garage to do this myself, thanks for everyone's PM's and the interest given.

we will keep everyone updated, but everyone regardless should get this kit and get it installed.

Could you list the pros/cons of this kit? Seems interesting, i've never heard anything about it though. I live in Houston, if I find it worth the money, then maybe we could arrange something.

For a break down of what the kit does please search either on this website or my350z.

In short, the kit increases line pressure making your shifts HARD and FAST!

If you would like to set up an install with Kevin (06g35meister) and I please PM Kevin.

Thanks Sean.

Matic-J was updated to Matic-S (synthetic) which has a higher heat rating.

The transgo kit is anywhere from $250-300 depending on where you buy it.

How long does it take you to do the Transgo install? I am thinking about doing it myself. It seems that the most difficult aspect is taking out the valve body and reinstalling it. Am I wrong in assuming that?

Wish this would have been out when I got my SGP valvebody done. Their price was over $1500 for everything! I would like to compare one day though....

Back in 2005 sometime. I forgot how long this has been out, but it didn't become main stream until not too long ago... I thought 2 years or so.

Correction...

The term "Transgo" was mentioned three times in 2006, five in 2007, fifteen in 2008, and hundreds in 2009.

Wow this is a great thread! I glad I found this. I going to need a VB upgrade this spring and am considering my options for the install.

Any reason why you guys only focus on Transgo vs any other brand VBs? Or are the different shops using a modified version of the transgo vb and rebranding them as their own?

My understanding on how the car drives vs stock with the Transgo is normal stock feeling shifts during light throttle dd driving and firmer shifts during spirited driving. Is that correct?
