dont forget also Fishboy bought and tested that "timing advance" mod thats on ebay and track tested it, it was proved NOT to work, so i'm sure this is the same. I don't see hwo it could benefit a already slow shifting automatic tranny.

Ha Ha, ya he is one of our frriendly wrench-heads on TGC. Well now we can get a review of the "product" .... I guess that's a good thing

I love you guys! You know me soooo well. This may not be as much of a scam as the 20HP booster resistor. This is actually somewhat legit. What it does is opens up the pressure valve on the tranny allowing the fluid to have more pressure. It should make the shifts smoother and more productive. I actually called the seller before I bought it to discuss it with him. It's not something he makes in his basement. It's made by a legit company called ShiftMaster. And yes, Dave, I will be track testing this after I get back from vacation. I'll keep you posted as usual.

LOL.. Ya there is no General Posts forum for all generations anymore :cry:

The right people found it none the less...

Keep us posted Fishboy55, from what I was reading on Ebay... if it's all true... the kit sounds pretty sweet.

good find fishboy

I got the kit in the mail and will try and install it after I get back from vacation. It needs to go to the Pressure Control Solenoid Valve. I checked my service manual and wiring diagrams, but can't find anything specifically called that. I sent an email to the manufacturer for clarification, but anyone that might know where this connection is located, please post it.

Could you take a pic of what that thing look like ?? and i want 1 too if those thing works, cause sometimes when my tranny change gear, it's somehow a little bit stuck and make it uncomfortable !! it happen mostly when i start steppin on my gas pedal real quick and the gear goes to lower gear.


Thanks Keep up posted
