don't do it unless you buy a new trans to replace the one the b&m will destroy, most trans shops won't install any b&m kit they are using transgo

Dang, if it was a 94 or 95 their would be a shift kit already built into the car. IMO go for the transglo or use a Hypertech programmer.

my "clutch" slips on mine. its an auto and right before it shifts the rpms jump up a bit real quick then it shifts and they drop again. it doesnt happen from 1st to 2nd...only from 2nd to 3rd and 3rd to 4th. my guess could be the "clutch" or bands...or whatever automatics have...is slipping and i might need a new servo or something...i dont know much about autos...
