Yeah I have the same shiftkit as Tim, I find I have it off for most daily driving as it can be a bit too harsh in daily traffic but when I want to play a bit it is cool for more solid shifts.

I will be able to give you back to back comparisons of any improvements over the 1/4 mile in the coming weeks as I have a suspicision my take offs are slower with the shiftkit on as the box doesn't allow the motor to flash into the boost revs at takeoff.

As mine is getting a full built stage III box in shortly I would be happy to send the shiftkit to anyone who wants to try it on their 4L60E.

If you really wanna see it shift like a racer, get some Penrite Racing oil Trans oil.

SIN COMP AUTO - Penrite Oil

But use at your own peril........ servo and kit are the way to go. Then again, i agree with those above, when family in the car, it would not be comfortable.
