lol, f'n funny. A joke from a joke site. All it was, a joke. I would apologize but I had a bigger laugh reading some of the comments from everyone that took it personal.
Assuming makes you an A.S.S. There are many manual cars that run 10 sec or less just like there are automatics.
And for Vader007, come on, pssy? I would expect that from a 16 year old learning to drive, not a veteran member of this forum.

Aside from the semantics, I would really like to know the perks of purchasing one of these kits and getting it installed as opposed to going with a 'valve body' upgrade. There is a substantial price difference so, please, someone educate me.

I was more-so referring to the price.
The transgo kit is $250.00. GTM's Valvebody upgrade costs $850. Stillen's Valvebody upgrade costs $700.00. My question is, do they all basically use the transgo kit and charge different installation prices OR are the kits entirely different and require more/less installation time?

I never said you were 16, you have no idea if you could out drive me because you don't know me, and you just let everyone know you wanted a manual. Ok, Bud.

Someone with the kit needs to come forward. I have highly interested and would love to see how much crisper and quicker the shifts become! I furthermore would love to mate up the Works Bell paddle shift kit together with the valvebody upgrade!
I've driven manual transmission cars all my life and always hated automatics especially in sports cars. But paddle shifters and a quick shifting automatic-semi automatic makes up for it in the end.

Have any video? Any insight into the install? What parts did the Transgo kit come with anyways? Its pretty vague on the website which particulars they use.
