If you have q's that I can answer I'm usally very glad to answer them, no matter what they are about, I have about 50 people on my aol buddy list from helping people consistantly. It's just that I show people the same respect they show me, and Ive just become frustrated.

Now, I have no idea what "i30krab's" has at all. From what your saying I doubt i'd ever put somthing like that in. The gear ratio was changed and is pretty good for what i'll be using it for, it's no longer in the wrong gear. It instantly kicks to the right gear, and is in the right rpm range. So I don't really see a benifit from hiting a switch, even for winter conditions I could just put it down to 2 or 1, but I doubt i'd even take it out in the snow just to much power. And to big of wheels.

well i guess since your transimission downshifts when ever u want it to u wont need the set up similar to i30krab's.. i thot his modification was real interesting because i really admire how other cars have sequential shifting for thier auto's. it's always fun to have a lil more control over things in the car. i think if i could do it all over again i would have got a manual. but at the time i'm still real happy with my slushbox.
