what is your concern about the tranny?

i have delt with that performance shop in Forest Park, Tire Discounters Performance center or whatever it is called. They wanted like $150 for an alignment and almost 1600 for new tires, i wouldnt suggest you waste anytime there.

I prefer to do my own work at all costs so i know how it is done.

If you are looking for a tuner (ecu) Injected Performance in Lexington is a good source for that.
Well, like many of MT owners said, mine was not that smooth at first. And now I think I'm kind of used it - I shift without problem. But still, I'm not sure if this is just normally weird or weird weird. So I thought it'd be easier to tell if I compare mine with others.

Actually, what I want from those shops are not that complex things - like installing an aftermarket rear diffuser or exhaust system.

I wish I were handy like you. lol.

im putting on my exhaust tomorrow of satuday, it isnt hard at all about 8 bolts and its on... best way is to just try and do it, a rear diffuser is very simple to put on too, comes with a template most likely on where to drill.

So if you live anywhere by Cleveland and see a silver 370 spinning tires on every corner it takes, that would be me because I just ordered new tires and have to burn these ones off lol
