Installed these parts Saturday morning on my '07... It only took about an hour or so. The hardest part was definitely getting the friggin snap ring back on the tranny housing after getting everything put back together and installed.
Anyway, took it easy for a few minutes driving it at first. Then got on it a couple times and WHOA! The first time it hit second it activated the traction control! So I turned the traction control and the Stabilitrack off and next time I went full throttle 1-2 it chirped the tires!
Now, it was cold outside and the pavement was dry--but covered in a bit of a salty residue after all the snow has melted off. That's probably the reason for it being able to spin the tires...but it wasn't able to do that before.
Now, I have the Hypertech on the regular tune (not much gain) but I do have the transmission firmness increased and I adjusted the shift points up 300rpm. It's amazing how much the higher shift points help during extended full throttle acceleration.
Anyway, it's getting more and more fun to drive this thing! My Mustang obviously still takes the cake....but I can't complain about the 'Hoe!
Definitely an improvement in 1-2 shift and snappier, more positive kickdown/downshifts. I probably won't be able to see the gains in the 4th gear servo until I do some towing.... I got all the parts for $83 total after shipping off eBay and highly recommend this mod.
