B&M shift improver

I just ordered the kit from Gravana. Was wondering if I could get a review.

How you like it, and how hard it was to install.

its the electronic kit, so its only availble for the 4spd auto...

i hear the wiring is just 2 wires, but im corious to if anyone seen better times with it installed over stock. and which setting is best to run on. (racing wise) "firm, or real firm"

There is a HUGE post on install some minor issues that people have and such do a search for "Shift improver pics" I think there is about 10 pages or so.

I ran mid 13's with it installed in my old cavalier....of course i had 17000 in it.
In my 2003 Sunfire, I ran 15.40 with it on setting 1, 16.10 on setting 2 (which is weird), and OFF was 15.55-15.70.
TWO setting sposed to shift firmer, but only managed to make my tranny slip. and that is on a 30,000 mile motor/trans.
It is worth the money, and if you needs pics for the install, email at citifolk@hotmail.com
Or jst search the JBO site.

I love my B&M shift kit! Shifts really fast, and hard. Great mod for sure!

^thats good stuff...

what else did u have done to the car to pull 15.4's?

I know my buddy dan (sturrios) was running 15.4's with just an intake and free flowing muffler and the trans inceptor.

My thoughs of the B&M

setting 0 (Off) stock.

setting 1 (hard) it shifts quicker, and feels really nice. I use it on that setting all the time (I drive highways, so the car shifts only 6-7 times a day)

setting 2 (I think I pooped myself hard) is really hard. Just like the shift kits in muscle cars. When at a track, it's great... but with everyday driving it shifts so hard I am afraid that it might be too rough on the drive train. You will be love it too.

sorry about the double post, I though I left this info in my first one.
