So when you're under full boost, does the car bog/lag in between shifts? When going balls to the wall, my car will "hiccup" as it shifts. I'm assuming this is b/c of the increased power. Will a valve body upgrade get rid of this or a new torque converter?

I would get the GTM or SGP VB (I don't think forged sells them anymore right now). I have the stillen and it's perfect if you are n/a or below 350hp/tq, but once you go higher than that it pauses to shift and you will hit the RL even if you shift at 6400 in MM. A TC will help handle all the extra tq. I got mine from edge racing for $400-$450 they just modify your TC to what you want. Ask for Andre if you go that route. |
^^his car shifts smooth as a mutha!!

I don't think you have a trans issue - it almost soudns like a tuning issue. Alomost like the car is too advanced during shift - not tuned right.
Have you had the car tuned? what EMU do you have? Rick |
Most likely bro you just need to get the VB and TQ... after getting mine tuned at SGP my shifts are the same way... after the summer i am going to got back to Mark at SGP and have them do the VB and TQ... i am also going to go with a bigger tranny cooler...
