Yeah I was warned about that Jim. That's why if I get a shift kit I'm going to make sure I can turn it off and if I tune the tranny I'll make sure it'll only be for tiptronic.

For $85 delivered and 10min install that cuts your quarter by a third of a sec i think its money well spent.


3/10ths off your quarter mile time...... *cough*....... I find that highly unlikely!!!

Maybe 3/10ths off the lifespan of your drivetrain, but your quarter mile??

"Where" was I sitting in your car?? Perhaps you meant to ask, was I sitting in your car?

I don't need to be sitting in the car to know that it's a horsesh!t claim young fella!!

You wanna go throwing good money after bad down the line? Well enjoy your new rough as guts, POS, pointless, wanky gear box mod. You're not the first after all.

Just don't make BS claims about it and then expect not to get questioned.

:lol:

Clearly this opinion on shift kits is my own so there is no need for anyone to get all princessy about it!

No, I'm saying that it doesn't knock 3/10ths off........

There is a chance that the shift kit may even result in a slower 1/4 if it results in greater traction issues than experienced without it too!!

Just because someone happens to have a different opinion to yourself is no reason to get sh!tty and throw a girly tantrum little fella.

Do you really think that you're that 'fully sik awesome' that everyone has to agree with you??

Just a suggestion for you, but perhaps it might be time to grow up just a wee little bit!!

Now, perhaps we should get back on topic.........

:roll:

Clearly, you're a touch brain dead, nor do you take advice too well.

But for future reference, I'd suggest keeping your family happy snaps to yourself!!
