I did this free upgrade where you disconnect the sensor that regulates the tranny fluid pressure, does anyone know If this will hurt the tranny, or If it just makes it shift faster with no problems, thanx.

Yes...

Running full line pressure all the time will burn out tranny.

If you must, do this for drag racing and then plug it back in. But I found that even though it seems to shift faster (really it's just harder, no faster), my times DID NOT improve over the times I ran just leaving it in "1" and bumping it up right before redline...gear by gear.

Then I swapped out to a 5-speed and cut off a second. Do that. ;)

Later - Brian
