Should I install the transgo in a 2001?

[brian_23456]

I was planning on installing a torque converter, transmission cooler and shift kit in my car on Sat. and was looking for some install directions when I noticed people saying that a Transgo shift kit will have problems with 99 and newer AODE's.
Is this true?
If so, is the jerry mod safe?

do the jerry mod, i'm going to.

I have a TransGo and love it, been going almost 2 years strong...the past year on spray.

That said, if I could do it over again I'd do the Jmod. It's cheaper (free) and guaranteed not to hurt the tranny.

Whichever you choose just definitely get a transmission cooler.

Goodluck with it.

Uh... what's the jerrymod?

I got a 2k Auto GT. Not sure if it's 4r70w or aode, though... (haven't checked)

Yours is a 4R70W.

The Jerry Mod is about as safe as you can get considering its coming from the guy who pretty much designed the tranny.

Dang it.
So should I do the transgo? I already bought it.
I was planning on putting it in tommarow, and I need to know soon if I should put it in or wait and do the jmod later.
Also, does the transmission need to be removed to do the j-mod?

I'd return the transgo.

The tranny does not have to be removed. It's only one step further than changing your trans filter. You only have to remove the valve body.

Alright! Thats a good straight forward answer! I guess ill do the jerry mod or save up for a valve body with a transbrake

I put the TRANSGO in my 01 GT about 3 weeks ago, the installation was very easy. However, I cannot notice a night/day difference unless I drive aggressively. I would probably do the "JERRY MOD" and save yourself $125.00.

I have a 2001automatic and was thinking about doings a trans go shift kit, rpm stall, and gears. What is the jerrymod that everyone has been atalking about, and what stall and gears would be recomended?
