Has anyone ever installed a Performance Shift Pak for you Transaxle? If so how hard is it to install? Is it as simple as it seems?

Damn there must of been something seriously wrong with your trans if it blew in 2 days. I have thrasher's shift kit on max and a DHP so my car shifts hard and i've had it for a couple of months now.

I have the INTENSE one.. it is great thus far. No problems here.

I've had the Thrasher kit in and set on the middle setting for over two years and 25K miles with absolutely no problems. You must have had an issue in your trans before the install.

My trans has started to click every time I go reverse is that a bad sign? Maybe I shouldnt install the Shift pack. It all started when I got my engine rebuilt.

I had that problem and it was my trans mount, you might need to replace that but if they rebuilt your engine they should of done that along with your lower engine mount.

Im pretty confident that the Intense and Thrassher kits and one of the same. Its an accumulater mod.

They are, with the thrasher kit just being a bit more adaptable to different cars. They are only using a heavier spring rate accumulator spring and shims.

Mine did that too, and I tightened the upper motor mounts and it went away. You may want to check that.

Is this a warrenty mod i can do?? cuz i dont feel like taking that out.... h34r:

 

[ThePizzaGXP]

Pretty easy install, I did mine and syP's with ease. More time consuming, and messy, if anything.

As for warranty, it's buried in the trans, it is something you should be able to get away with.

if the trans blows up they will have to look.....

Ill just call and ask them...

Bobby, I don't think they would ever be able to catch it. General practice is to replace the transmission, not rebuild it, or so has been my experience.

If they were to find it, you can claim ignorance.
