bjl95mustang said:How does the intake affect the the transmission. The older valve bodies arnt made to be abused like that and it will wear them out faster and you will hurt it. I wouldent recomend manually shifting unless you have a 99+ valve body becuase thy have upgraded parts and are different. www.tccoa.com tech then tranny.
SuperDust22 said:I agree with gcomfx.com, I get faster times when I shift. I also have the cobra intake. And that makes a difference to when I shift. If I leave it in Drive, the car will shift too soon not even using the extra power the intake gives me. Manually shifting I can hold it more rpms getting the full performance out of the intake. It would go the same for a 5 spd. You would shift at the same rpms if you got a new intake. Why would you do it with an AODE then? Yes, it might be harder on the tanny but your racing. It's hard on the whole car. Something is going to break sooner or later.

With your problem manual shifting won't help at all. The only way to force it to shift earlier is to let up on the gas pedal. Do you have a chip in yours?
