So I ran across this thread in the 07- coupe DIYs. It's some sort of tranny mod that allows faster shifts.
Anyone heard of this for our gen's?
Would this put damage on our trannies?

I'm excited, I would like to know if this works.

 

Yep, that's basically what it does. I'm not really sure how much faster the shifts can be on our 2nd gen's though, it's already pretty quick as it is.

 

In the mustang world, transgo isnt widely respected. I wouldn't put that in my car, but that's just me

 

thats true, its really the first to second gear shift i'd like to speed up.

 

You have a grounding kit? I'd try that first before messing with the trans and voiding the warranty.

 

what was told to me was not to upgrade the tranny unless you were going FI.as well what e-ticket ride said i would try the grounding kit and see how you like it.

 

On my '04 the grounding kit definitely improved shifting.


....it won't do a thing for my '08 though.

 

sounds cheaper, easier (grnding kit), i'll try that first.

just wanted to get a feel for what this thing is and what you guys thought of it

 

no problem Johnnyzee that is what the forums are for

 

Try the grounding wires. I put them on mine and it sped up the shifts.

 

I have it in my 07 sedan and have been very happy with it. It essentially reduces the time the AT shifts from one gear to the next.

It will not damage the transmission. It is actually better for transmission longevity because the longer it takes to shift from one gear to the next, the hotter the fluid gets.

Driving around normally, you cannot tell the shift kit is there. However, when the RPMs are up (driving the transmission line pressure up) the shifts will be much more "crisp" ... like the feel of popping the clutch on an MT. Your car will be easily chirping gears.

 

thx for the input Terry

My friend's 335i with 7spd tranny shifts faster than I can blink. My 5AT takes ages!!

 

LOOOOL, never ever compare a damn BMW or any other German made car to our cars, nissan never desinged this as a performance gearbox.

BTW i know someone in Kuwait who has installed TransGo on his 350z, and the car is running perfectly for 2 years until now, he did it in Al-Ouda garage, his 5AT shifts like 6MT, and his shifting is just too great.
