05_silvy Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 I was wanting to get tm removed so I bought a vette servo and a transgo hd2 shift kit. the local trans shop said that they could just put in the servo and boost my line pressure and it would work without the shift kit. should i just have that done or go ahead and get the shift kit put in?

05_silvy Posted December 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 i know boosting line pressure will make it shift harder, but will it make it shift faster? I have decided to have the shift kit installed, but could i have the line pressure boosted in the tran and then have it boosted more in the tune? would it be good or bad?

Fireman31 Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 (edited) i know boosting line pressure will make it shift harder, but will it make it shift faster? I have decided to have the shift kit installed, but could i have the line pressure boosted in the tran and then have it boosted more in the tune? would it be good or bad? Transmissions are a real weak link in these trucks, do the shift kit. I had 50% of my TM removed in my tune as well as increased line pressure, now I am starting to have trans problems. A shift kit and torque converter are comng real soon in my case. Edited December 18, 2007 by Fireman31 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BILLS04SS Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Don't be cheap. Get a shift kit installed. You'll thank yourself later. Especially if you plan on doing any mods down the road. I say Transgo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
