Go to www.mobiletek.net if you want to mod a auto.You can get a Valve body recalibration,tranny cooler,torque converter.Then you wont say the Maxima's tranny sucks.The VB alone will speed the shifts making them way faster.

Yeah Bobo, go to the Mobiltech site. Don in Texas does these mods and they greatly reduce the shift times in our autos. Supposed to take .4-.5 off the 1/4 mile times. I would also recomend getting a tranny cooler to help increase the life of your tranny. VB mod =$450, but there is a group deal right now on the Org. which may bring prices down as low as $350 depending on how many people buy. Tranny cooler = $35- $40. Both well worth there cost. Good luck. :D

Yeah,You can have a mechanic do it and just pay for labor.Or you can read the step by step instructions on this page on how to do it.Or Don will send you the instructions.

Yep, about 5x12, sits in front of the a/c condensor. If your getting the VB mod, GET THE TRANNY COOLER! Get it anyway, it will extend the life of the tranny.:p

I assume you mean dyno.You should call around at some shops in the area and ask if they know where a dyno shop is.Or look in the yellow pages.
