You really need to search to read up on all the details.

I'm gonna help you out in a nutshell way:

VB mod makes the auto tranny shift faster/harder. It helps prolong tranny life in heavily modded cars by not letting the clutches spin on themselves while changing gears (lag). There are only 2 places to get them one is maximmum tuning, the other is mobiltek.

Search and you will find tons of pages worth of stuff.

Actually, one more place does some transmission stuff. Their deal is really for an all out transmission job, but they include VB modding as well, so I'm sure they'd be able to do just the VB mod if you wanted them to. Here's the link to the page at VQpower.com

The link to the shop is on that page.

i have the VB mod on my car. they are definatly good for automatic trannies. maxima transmisions have been known to break down, so this make it much stronger and you shift harder and it seems like theres a stronger pull in the power band, for speed you can tell a differnce but thats (butt dyno) but i like it. unfortunatly it wasnt enough, so im going to convert to a 5speed
