My Pearly... Now with M04r w1n

Got my trans back from the rebuilders... Got them to do a little work in the valve body to help with the shift speed. Rebuilt converter and full internals... Then I decided to take it apart, only to add a little VTD action

Re: My Pearly... Now with M04r w1n

and does adding the VDT negate the warranty from the trans shop?

help me out here, how are you going to recognize the fact that you've got the VDT installed in your every day driving?

Re: My Pearly... Now with M04r w1n

Bill, VTD has a mechanical cneter diff... It's primary drive is the rear wheels... Nuff said... More or less I didn't want to have to deal with the laggy and explosive clutch pack. No voiding any warranties here

OT, right now the shifts are perfect... It feels great. But I do not yet have the correct TCU in it which means it has a soft binding at light throttle... Hence why I am not driving ti right now
