    I think they are good for speeding everything up, IMO i always thought the auto's were a bit slow changing gear's, The shift kit seem'd to get rid of that issue

    My gearbox feels much better now, feel's stronger and not as much slip feel when changing....

    To me i like it and am happy with my choice, Each to there own i guess

    Corvette servo piston does not operate 1st gear.

    The corvette servo piston is used to apply 2nd firmer and give greater clamping pressure.
    There is also one for 4th gear.
