Go with Vince Janis in Ohio. You'll get a great tranny from him. His work is well known and he's also great to deal with. Search Vince Janis Transmission by GNsnake on this board and look at the feedback I got from lots of people.

Jason White (V6 turbo) is in Valrico Fl. His # & address in the I want everybody to know whose is who, sticky up top.
I wouldnt hesistate to use ANY vendor on that screen, You wont be sorry if you get one shipped to or from them. Ive personally used a mechanic somewhat local.... It didnt work out & lost valuable money and a lot of time, my brother did the same. I have used Lonnie Diers for myself my brothers using Ckperformance my buddy's used Pts & Brian Hoffer Dave Husak is also a good recommendation thats reasonable. The moral of this story is to save time, money, and headaches USE A VENDOR ON THIS BOARD. YOU'D be glad you did.

Holler at Brian Hofer, Mine is just perfect that I got from him. Nice firm shifts when you are just driving but not head banging. Step on the gas more and it tears the tires off when it shifts. First time at the track I did a 14lb T-brake lauch with it and all I can tell you is OH MY GOD!!!!!! Lonnie, pts, several more are great builders but all I can tell you personally about is Brian. You will NOT be dissapointed with his ! Daniel Ray

Ray the one you have on your camera was I in the far lane or by the stands. The far lane was the high boost lauch, the near lane I left off at about 9 or so. If it is the far lane I would love to see it myself !!!!!!!! Emily was filming from the end of the track on that pass, she had it zoomed but its still kind of far away. Thanks man
Leprcon, you will like the pts tranny, the only thing I don't like on dougs pts is the downshift clunk, kind of weird lol but it works killer in his car.
