So he took a valve body off a turbo legacy AT and put it on his SVX AT?

Re: Where can I get a JDM Twin Turbo Valve Body?

I don't see it being any better than the stock valve bodies. It's still going to be plagued by the TCU programming. Also, the valve body is likely the same as what is in the SVX anyway.
Or, it could just be a load of sh!t and someone talking out of their a$$...
In any case, if you want an upgraded valve body, go to LAN.
