Did you forget its an auto, Killy? What good is a shifter or quad/fw adjuster. Stock 3.27s with the 4 speed auto really dog the car down. Youve gotta do the gears first and the chip fixes your speedo gives you ~10hp and much better shifts. No brainer.
Nuttin wrong with shifting an auto. /jk So at what point do you want to build up the auto tranny to avoid disaster? I'm assuming you can do all the basic bolt-ons w/converter and be safe but I guess I want to hear it from someone else first.
You really should read this http://www.tccoa.com/articles/tranny/index.html Many questions will be answered.
I'm a stick shift guy... Welcome "Lookin4Stang"!!! Do you happen to know "DanceswithWolves"?? j/k Hey! I drive a Mazda 6 too! But I have my mustang too. Enjoy!
Holy hell, dude. You have to do something about that now. Going with 4.10s will feel like you added 80hp!
DanceswithWolves you say? The guy that thought you could put a 300 shot of the giggly thru a stock Dodge Neon? What was he thinking?
Shift kit is fine and it was cheap. The chip had already improved shifts a lot tho. I cant remember exactly which setting. It was somewhere in the middle. My car shifts very hard at WOT - chirps the 2-3 shift at 60mph and i'm not really making that much power.
Yeah--3.08s are killing me and I imagine I can pick up .3s with a gear change. I have a hookup on the install, just gotta find me some cheap gears now. I'll be going with 3.73s (would like 3.90s also) since I do drive 40 miles one way to attend school a few days a week. Texas heat + high rpms for long periods of time (drive 75-80 the entire way) = disaster
Me thinks that the 3.27 would be alright with a 3200 stall converter. Hopefully I updated my sig. Edit. Yes. Sig was a success. Now what shall I play with next?
