need vb mod input..

i have been hearing about the vb mod for auto max's. i have always felt my 02 max has shifted a little sluggish since new.

questions

1. would doing a vb mod on a 02 max with 46k be a bad thing?

2. i live in ne ohio does anyone know where i can get this done?

3. what stage should i consider? thanks for the input..

VB is not a bad thing at all. Infact it can prolong the life of the tranny. Use it with a Tranny Cooler.

You can install it, but any transmission should be able to install it.

Stage two is hte way to go for good firm shifts.

you can get it done at any shop, its not hard at all. you would just have to send your old VB back to Jeff. i would strongly reccomend the stage two, thats what i got and it is great. def one of my favorite mods.

So transmission shops in my local area should be able to do a VB mod? They would know what i am talking about or would they need to contact Jeff on the know hows?

he was stating that any local shop should be able to swap out the vb for you. you would still need to order it jeff then swap in the new one. then you ship the old one back. this would of course cause a core charge but you would receive it back when you mail your old one.

Thanks for clarifying that for me....
