So I've been reading up on the J-mod and remember hearing awhile back that the reason you're supposed to turn OD off in a car while racing is because you can destroy the OD gear if it shifts at WOT due to some slippage. Will the J-Mod reduce/remove this issue as far as slipping or misshifting into OD and allow you to keep OD on? I know it firms up the shifts and reduces tranny wear so I'm assuming it helps the OD shift as well?
I don't know much about the stang's auto tranny, but you're seriously going fast enough to hit OD at WOT when racing?
Overdive is simply not designed to take a lot of torque. The j-mod will not redesign the trans to make it something it isn't

Dusstbuster said:I know I was just hoping that the firmer shifts would help reduce the stress of the shift on OD. Whats even worse is that if it comes to that point in the RPM range and you have OD off, the tranny overrides the "off" and kicks it into OD anyways.
Wow! That is the first time I've seen that. Everything else for the past few years has been "I heard..." or "They say..."
my auto over rides and shifts into o/d at like 5k for some reason...its pretty stupid.
