WTT Modified Transmission Resisitor for Stock Transmission Resistor
I have a Transmission Resistor that has been modified by SVXFiles that I need to replace with a stock one. The modified one provides slightly firmer shifts and is a nice easy/low cost upgrade to a stock transmission.
The reason I need a stock one is because I have a ECUTune TCU Chip installed and that is what they recommend. I am just looking for a straight up trade for one in good condition.

Is that the sound of crickets that I hear?

I'd be happy to trade you a stock one but
NO ONE EVER SENDS ONE BACK TO GET THE CORE CHARGE!!!

Re: WTT Modified Transmission Resisitor for Stock Transmission Resistor
Can anyone tell me how driving feels, and what effects this modified resistors has?
I know the resistor is there to lower line pressure, what about the modified one? And last question is the modified one like unplugging the resistor? |

Re: WTT Modified Transmission Resisitor for Stock Transmission Resistor
From SVXFiles Web Page:
"Custom Dropping Resistor Mod The Solenoid A (dropping) resistor controls the line pressure in the transmission. By adjusting the resistance, we can "firm up" your shifts." http://www.svxfiles.com/custom.html#resistor From my experience, the resistor does not make a dramatic difference. It is just a subtle change in how it shifts. A very low cost, and very easy improvement that you can do to improve the stock set up. The ECUTune TCU unit makes a bigger impact, but costs more and and is more difficult to install. Each one is better than a stock set up. http://www.ecutune.com/tcu.htm

Re: WTT Modified Transmission Resisitor for Stock Transmission Resistor
very interesting thanks. Any idea how to tell if you have a socketed TCU? opening it up to tell is fine.

I found it easier to buy a complete TCU with it already installed. I'm a wuss, I didn't want take a chance on messing it up.

The ECUTune is a much better way to go! I have two of his TCUs, and one of his valve bodys! They REALLY transform the transmission operation! But for people on a budget, the modified resistor does help. Right now I am out of cores, so untill I get some, you would have to ship me your core for it to happen. Tom
