you wont notice a huge change between off and stage I but off and stage II you should notice a very substantial difference in the shiftting...

so when the car is running you can go from off to stage 1 and then to stage 2 but in order to go the oposite way the car needs to shut off right?

Am I wrong or is the same thing that has been tearing up a lot of transmissions? All it does is increases the line pressure which in turn over a short period of time is very abusive on the trans. I could be wrong and may be something else but I thought for sure it was this product.

It helps the tranny, more pressure means quicker shifts which is less friction and heat.

i got it from turbo tech racing its a vendor over here

my opinion is that the only way to kill your tranny is to push it to its limits all the time again thats just my opinion but yea so far i like it it feels different in a good way

it only two wires to hook it in and u use line tapes so if something went wrong, you could remove it and take it in and more than likely they'd have no clue what you had on their or did.
