Best of luck with the install, it's a b!tch. But it was worth it in the end!

Looks like UpRev may have a software solution that works better... just a heads up for you guys looking to perform this mod in the future or as an add on to the transgo (e.g. the transgo does not modify the 4-5 shift, but now you can!). Looks like their "torque management" is still in beta but it seems to work really well based on a little experimentation at my end. I need a trans fluid pressure gauge to really document it though.

There is quite a delay there. I could only see this being useful in a competition situation because you can keep your hands on the wheel all the time.


How much is the shift kit? The site does not even list one for the Z or G:

Interesting... If we could adjust pressure electronically this would be even better. I still have the "lazy" shifts under 3k or so (assuming throttle position is < 25 or so percent) which is why everyone likes the kit, under normal driving you don't know it's there. I find that the only way to get that snappy shift is to give it some gas and shift, and then it's instantaneous. If I could get that crisp shift even under low throttle conditions I would buy the uprev setup in a second. While it's a crazy improvement over stock (even down low in the revs), I still want more...
