I've been wondering about this myself for a while now. Not to jump in on Buck Slayer's thread. But another thing we're both probably wondering, about how much is the transgo kit?

See if this video helps http://www.transgo.com/video.php.
There is not much to it if your not afraid of pulling the valve body.
Also make sure you have the factory service manual just in case.
