Dylan06SS Posted April 15, 2005 Report Share Posted April 15, 2005 I'm not trying to knock Joe's setup or Transgo, but "more parts" and uneducated opinions from a customer aren't really the basis for saying that his kit is better than the Superior. Joe is a respected member here and he knows his stuff, but after doing my research there were too many issues w/ the Transgo kit to waste my $$$ on it.

j4nash Posted April 15, 2005 Report Share Posted April 15, 2005 Yes I do He replaces it with a Metal one and throws the plastic one away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j4nash Posted April 15, 2005 Report Share Posted April 15, 2005 my opinions are not uneducated Someone that does not know what they are doing when they install the shift kit will screw up the kit no matter what brand it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lefty Posted April 15, 2005 Report Share Posted April 15, 2005 I have seen him at work and he is definitely one of the best at what he does. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Just out of curiosity, how many other trans techs have you seen perform their jobs to make that assessment?

Would you choose a supercharger on how many parts it took to make it work??? How about a stereo... if it takes more parts to make it work is it better than an all in one unit???

j4nash Posted April 15, 2005 Report Share Posted April 15, 2005 I am not saying that more parts is better what I am saying is that the kit replaces more parts with better parts. It is like would you take a motor out of a 2 stroke motorcycle for you truck or would you like a 427 Also it does not matter if I can or cannot do a complete rebuild of a transmission. It does not take a rocket scientist to know when something with more reinforced parts is better and less likely to brake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonmalibuss Posted April 15, 2005 Report Share Posted April 15, 2005 Ok but you can spend thousands on parts alone for a trans but if you don't know how all the parts work and what one part causes another part to do you could easily buy all the best baddest parts out there but if they don't correctly work together the trans will not last. Having said this you must learn a thing or two by doing more than just watching someone install a shift kit or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j4nash Posted April 15, 2005 Report Share Posted April 15, 2005 you don't have to know everything. it is more who you know. you don't have to do everything yourself. it is ok to have someone that is better at something then yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zippy Posted April 15, 2005 Report Share Posted April 15, 2005 do tell, i'd like to know what's in his kit compared to mine that makes it that much better? i'd really like to hear this. what parts it is? the chp truck has over 200 dragstrip passes on it with a stock trans and currently runs 12's. it also is driven hard and has had quite a few street encounters without a failure. i'd like to know what these parts are. as for the accumulator piston, using the superior kit i've never had one yet crack or break the plastic one. if my kit shifts harder and doesn't break the plastic piston, that just can't be a good thing? i'm not on here trying to sell my stuff, but to hear someone knock on it without backing it up other than having seen his put in is bs.
