I've got 07 crew cab 4x4 dually... the truck is 'toyed' with tune wise by about 90 hp. It's usually trippin's tow tune, and occasionally a hypertech 120 :spit:(I know, I know, I've been yelled at :hug:)...
I want a bit more power, but, nothing where I'm in danger of burning a hole in the pistons or some other expensive tragedy.

The truck is used for everything, daily driven, towing 13k in windy mountain passes (on the throttle, off the throttle, then back on the throttle...) and my only concern is shift feel.
I LOVE this truck and trans, I love it empty, I love it loaded, it just shifts so smooth and effortlessly... my main concern is to keep that feel.

If I install the trans-go Jr. Mod, is my truck going to feel like it has a harsh shift kit in it? I don't want it banging gears every time it shifts...

Sorry so long winded...
My next question will be when i get money, does a BUILT tranny shift well like mine now?? :rofl:

Thanks all!

I have had the trans-go installed since 3000 miles and I tell absolutely every one to have one installed ASAP. It shifts better and drives so much nicer. Of course it is no replacement for a built trans, but as far as bang for your buck goes, it's probably one of the best mods you can do to your trans IMO.

Shifts are firmer with the trans-go, but once the trans learns the shifting after the install, it isn't harsh at all. As far as how a built trans shifts, I wouldn't know.:D

Built trans does not shift much harder than stock.

GREAT!! Although this is well into the future plans, I'm glad to put that to rest :hug:

I run Mike's TransGo kit with Trippins tow tune and I couldn't be happier. Perfect match if you ask me....
I wish I could get more MONEY - I'm going to get one but it's going to be a bit. with everything going on right now it's hard to justify 100 bucks for the truck :confused:
It's on the wish list, Thank you!:hug:
