the pump WILL NOT last as long with the increased line pressure. As far as how much less, no one knows. Maybe 50-80K miles of HARD driving, instead of, say, 150K miles. Again, this is a SWAG (scientific wild *** gas).

Did you raise your rev limiter? Because it seems as if you're going past it. Hows the gas mileage? Are you tuning your car at SGP in Houston? If so watch out for my uncles silver evo. Single turbo on that baby he's probably gonna be making at least 450awp.

search for Transgo.

The kit itself is relatively cheap - but trying to find someone in your area to put it together could be a challenge (its one of the things that has kept me from getting it yet).

was talking to OCG35..he was the previous poster. If I had been aiming at you I would have quoted or specified by name.

I'm told the Stillen is fine, but the transgo is much more firm. you can also go to www.gtmotorsports.com and buy the kit or send them your VB.

Trust me the stillen is junk.Before i did my vb upgrade i drove a stillen modded vb and felt allmost no difference on full throttle up shifts.The Transgo is the only one worth the price.

I've driven 2 different Gs with Stillen VB... both better than any stock VB G (including mine)

Now that Transgo is priced where Stillen is, I am targeting it... but when it was $1200 vs $700 I wouldn't poo on Stillen.... and in fact there was a period of time when Stillen was about the only one.

Once I find a shop that has done several and has reasonable pricing, I'll consider Transgo. I just never understand ppl saying Stillen is almost no difference... the two cars I drove had substantial difference (maybe "noticeable" depends on how much trq/hp you have)
