Default Blue Top Solenoids

Does anybody know where I can get a set of blue top solenoids for a reasonable price?

Yes for the tranny. I am getting a pair from Rcompart and will let everyone know what happens after I get them installed.

if you can't change the fact the tranny, backs the throttle off to 60%, then I don't see what changes out to the blue tops will do...but, someone has to try it, good luck...

Euro is supposed to be close to being able to prog the tranny module. Even if I don't gain any time I hate the way the car feels when it shifts. I had a 340 duster with a transpack and I miss the snap as you move up the gears. This thing feels like I am driving my grandpa's lincoln when it shifts.

Tranmission adaption by the TCU is something to consider when regarding soft/hard shifts.

I have experienced a modded C32 transmission is perky when switching between the W (winter) and S (summer) toggle switches by shifter. Drive aggressively in the S mode and your shifts will be come more firmer.

Does the SRT6 use the same tranny as the SLK32/C32?

Hmm i would pretty much bet on it, but have no conclusive evidence.

What about checking in with the LX guys? They (we) have the same tranny.


Something like this?

I've sent my SRT valve body to get reworked by Builder Bill.
I believe I'm the first to go this route.
More when I get it back.
