I have a 2001 I30. What can I do to improve the transmission??

 

VB Recalibration + Transmission cooler

 

How much does something like that cost to do? are they hard to install?

 

you will have to send you VB out to Don in Texas for the recalibration. It will cost probably around $500 with shipping and all. A tranny cooler can be had for around $40 or so.... you can get them at pep-boys....

 

what does the VB Recalibration do? does it help in the process of changing gears? because i have a problem wth my 2nd gear. my first gear takes off great but once its goes into 2nd gear it looses a lot of power or something. what can i do to improve that?

 

Have you replaced both of your TCM's yet?

 

No what are tcm's? i have no idea what they are. but im pretty sure than i havent changed them. what do they do?

 

Transmission control module (I think)

 

You mean the TCM and solenoid, right?

 

the VB recalibration will make the shifts quicker.... it will not change the gear ratios or the gearss themselves in any way. For more info: www.mobiletek.net

 

Hey Kev, i am sure you have answered this 1m+ but what exactly is going with the tmc. is there a defect or just a upgrade. and if not an defect, why upgrade?

Yeah the VB is awesome. Tony C gave me a ride in his 99 soon after he got his. The shifts were really impressive. I'm eventually going to get this done. I'm waiting for my basic warranty to be up.
