increased line pressure, replace a couple spool valves and springs. I'm not an expert, but I think the main thing is to increase the main line pressure inside your tranny. Provides better holding power for the clutches.

is it an upgade to a stock trans, or is it an upgrade to one of the suncoast kits?

Is is basicly the Transgo shift kit. You can do it seperate from a kit. Sounds like guys are running just the Transgo and a triple disk TC an are holding up to lots of power.

For $750 - it has to be more than a transgo kit.

I haven't heard of too many (or any) getting this as part of the trans upgrade though.

Question for Mike L., Smoop, or Eric? It is odd that this part is not discussed very often here.

They could tell you but they would have to kill you.
