Whats your thoughts on Trans-go shift kit

Was going to put trans-go shift kit on my 700r4(92 Firebird 305tbi). For those that have done so, was it worth it? Did it perform like you thought? Whats your thoughts on it? Thanks!

ive heard its the safest one for the tranny...b & m will rip up the gears?
any ways...i like it. though i must say i did not drive the car for 8 months before puttin it in....put it in during rebuild. at idle, when i shift it jerks the car. if i had more hp...only have 305 im sure it would spin the tires in 2nd. i say get it.

Did it myself in the vehicle and love it! Supposedly a little more involved than the B&M, but I haven't done one of theirs. It did come with a video and good instructions.

I have one in my car, its much better than the B+M POS that was in there before. I didnt install it, so I dont know how hard or easy it was. Just follow the instructions and you should be fine. Careful with the checkballs... dont lose any or put em in the wrong spots.

a buddy of mine put a trans-go in his monte ss, while another buddy of mine used a B&M setup. The trans-go totally out does the B&M in my opinion. The trans-go gives alot better, snappier shifts than the B&M. Well worth it.
