i have and i only have a 305 throttle body, it really is a good cheap investment and it hits second gear a lot harder than stock, what type of tranny do you have??

well if you have the TH 700R-4 i think you will be ok but while you have all that stuff out you might as well put a shift kit into at least, they only cost like 50 bux.

If you are already shifting firm, it won't make your car any faster. In fact, if the harder shifts break your tires loose, your car will be slower. That being said, I have the .5 boost valve and vette servo in a stock 700r4 and IMO it shift just about right.
