Install is free. It takes about an hour. We do have cores available if you are out of state and need it shipped with no down time.

I saw the post in the fourth gen (or general, I forget) forum. You said the price is $150 if you upgrade from a first gen vb. If that price is still cool for the gd, put me down for a stage II.. if not, i'll be calling you soon anyway. Thanks

How you doin' maximus, Do you have a store that sells aftermarket car parts or are you just a shop? I live about 20 to 30 mins from glen cove (I think) and if you have a store I'd love to come down there and check it out. Plus I'm lookin' into a VB for my 4th Gen. this GD is only for the people that already have VB's, correct? How much for a stage 1 VB on a 4th gen?

i have the VB v.2 installed since november. i didnt have the v.1, but when after install Jeff took my car for a spin, he said the 2-3 shift was much improved over v.1. Jeff did the install, along with new solenoids, took about an hour, and it works like a charm when i'm tooling around BK in traffic, if the gas pedal is pressed lightly, the tranny behaves pretty much "stock", but when i step on it, it kicks at first it was kicking a bit too hard to my liking, due to new solenoids, but after a week or two, it became "normal".

i was reading somewhere... that its better on 1/4 times about .4, your tranny will be stronger, i think you need a tranny cooler, 1-2-3-4 stages (i think... im not sure)

I'd stick with org testers and not false claims from other websites. If you search around you would know that dozens of people noticed no difference in 1/4 time before and after the VB mod alone. Its strictly for firmer shifts, improve tranny life, and better for the boosted guys.

i disagree, i have heard that many are seeing droped times, and it will make your tranny stronger, the v2 will make the 2-3 hift much firmer than the v1, you should do a tranny cooler while your at this, it only costs like 60 buxs, maximumtunng isnt a store, just a repair/install/performance shop

well I was talking about the OG's of this website. I'm sure there are a lot of new guys that just jump on the bandwagon and say they dropped times but never have been to the track. If you are making tons of power then I can see the times dropping because of the strain on the stock tranny to shift. I know this first hand thats why Im getting the VB, but for all motor there is no way in hell you will drop .4 from just a VB mod. I'd say maybe a tenth at most and it could be atributed from the weather conditions.

Definitely not....my best run at the track was 15.7 when I was auto w/ Stage 2 VB mod, CAI, y-pipe, catback and pulley....

The VB makes the car much more enjoyable to drive and the shifts are lightning quick... unfortunately the car is not any faster....you'll need a 5-speed for that....
