That's the only gripe I have with the Transgo kit. I've had the kit for about 2 years now, and I don't know if it's something I did wrong on install or if it's a problem with my VB, but my tranny will shift from 3-4 under WOT even with the shift lever in D.

It only does this at WOT. At part throttle, it will hold 3rd. This kinda sucks at the track as you have to let up when the tranny hits 3rd, or it will shift into OD about 100-200 feet before the end of the 1320. As you could guess...not the best thing when you're shooting for low times.

Anyway...was wondering if anybody else had this problem.

I just bought a 91 Geo Prizm as a daily driver. It should save me about $50 a month in gas (can you say 30 mpg?!), and I worked it so my insurance is about $230 less with both cars on there than it was with just the Mustang. This should give me some freedom to go a little more crazy with the stang...I'm thinking C-4 pretty soon...hehehe.
