Default New Tranny is a BEAST!

So i got my truck back today!!! Got to drive it for the first time in little over 1 month!!! OMFG talk about 8cyl withdraw! Driving that pos 2.0 if even that!

Tranny shifts PERFECT everytime at WOT Spins 2nd everytime, and so much low end torque with the stall i have to take it easy now....

Stalls to about 2500 on street tires, with DR im sure i can get it close to 2800 for the n2o.

Either way its a beast and well worth the damn money!

Totally rebuilt with top of the line parts Phoenix Master Rebuild kit, kelvar bands, 4 stage clutch/driveplate, Transgo Stage 2shiftkit, 2800stall, Rebuilt Soliniods with transgo kits, and a balloon plate for n2o.

After it was all said and DONE i spent about 3000$ on it.

and on my way back from the shop i got a nice little 82 in a 60 speeding ticket, but since i was so happy i told the cop thank you and was on my way! (and if you know me im never nice to cops!) im just going to send it to my Pre Paid Legal Rep anyways and have them deal with it.. hopefully cut the fine in half or get it dropped if i just take Def Driving. So whatever!

not for awhile,

I have to pay down my credit cards. I have about 1500$ Saved right now, plus 1000$ from Tax Return, and this months paychecks are all going to my credit card, once im debt free again. Ill start working on the truck again, right now i need to get back on my feet, this 3000$ set me back a little.

Before i do the n2o, i still need SCT, Wideband Datalogger, Switch Gauge, Purge, n2o Plate, ect...

it wont be done till maybe mid summer or so.
