It was definitely worth it for me. Being able to stay in boost while shifting is nice :D

i have the turbonetics turbo and it is to much for my tranny to handle and i have a tranny cooler,
it would be worth it if you bought a valve body and sincros (i cant spell i know). all the stage 1 tranny upgrade is sincros just read it very closely, they replace the rest of it with stock parts.

Besides the tranny issues, how do you like your turbonetics set-up? I have been thinking about getting that or the Greddy set-up. Whats ur WHP, likes/dislikes?

Thanks,

anybody recommend the ZPI stage 0. It'll give you like 230-240 horses i believe. That shouldn't be to much for the tranny to handle could it?

Stage 0 is NOT at the crank. ZPI does not post Crank HP #'s. They post Whp #'s.
