I think the vette is a 35% increase.

I know that the Trans go is the way to go, but I am affraid that it will eventually kill the bans and clutches. However i do have a huge trans cooler so would that help?

What about the Super Servo? I still can't decide between those two when I do my shift kit.

THe shift kit will help things more than hurt them IF installed conservatively and properly. The vette intermediate servo and billet servo would be the way to go unless you're going all out. In that case, you need the billet intermediate servo, but you also need to add a valve into the case of the tranny. Without the valve and with the billet servo you stand a chance at burning up the 3/4 clutch pack.

Do the billets, do it once and forget it along with the transgo. Also get tqmgt removed or to a better level. I had it removed completely and I feel a good difference in power. It squeals the tires and keeps going instead of bogging after it shifts.

This is the exact route I am taking, I ordered my kit last week. BUT - I only ordered the HD Aluminum 1-2 accumulator. What valve for the 3/4 are you referring to? Is there another accumulator for the 3/4 as well?

I ordered the transgo. 1-2 Alum. accumulator, vette intermediate and Billet OD SuperServo. Am I missing a piece?

TIA!

It's a servo release check valve. No. 77701-076 from Sonnax.

I'd peep into getting both the 1-2 and 3-4 aluminum accumulator pistons. I think they are the same.
