Option 2, drive it in full manual mode. Gearing is different than the manual though, so it gets better mileage, but less off the line speed. |

Converting these damn things from a GoPro takes forever and then upload to youtube! I haven't even tried driving it in sport mode with the new transmission mods. I always drive mine in manual with the Traction Completely off.

BTW, the transmission will handle anything under 500whp. The rear diff is a different story. Just replaced mine about a month ago. I haven't heard but of a couple others having the same rear diff issue as mine actually broke on the inside shaft.

What does the valve body (stage one) actually accomplish?

You will see in the videos. The new Valve Body allows the car to shift alot harder from 1st to 2nd and a little more aggressive than factory from 2nd-4th. It basically makes your car go faster because there is 0 lag between shifts. Anyone who knows transmissions will tell you that rhe harder one shifts the longer the trans will work and the faster the car launches. I went out and drove yesterday and took various videos from different angles. I am putting them all together into one and will upload as soon as its done.

Nah-ah really? Sweet that's exactly what I've been waiting for..can't wait to see the videos!! Do the shifts bite harder just in sport mode or can u tell when it's on automatic no sport mode? By harder do u mean faster? Thanks for the info this is exciting news!

I have not driven it in sport mode. The videos you will see the sport button is off. It shifts hard no matter what you are doing! Fast isn't the right word when going from 1st to 2nd! 90% uploaded on Youtube so far.

Holy shit is right.
@DeOppressorLiber How much power are you making? Shifts look awesome just like you said and you are seriously lighting them up in 1st/2nd. SSP indicates the transmission can take 500whp with those upgrades? Did you talk to them about running a 4.556 or 4.88 FD with that transmission configuration? That is what I want to do eventually. I wonder how well I would launch NA with 190 whp (93 oct) or 205 whp (E85)? Wonder if it would bog a lot more than yours due to having so much less power. Seems like I might bog with the OEM 4.10 FD, but with a 4.88 it would probably be launching pretty hard. Hmmm... Can you do some test driving with it in sport mode and auto mode to see if all is "normal" besides the improved shift aggressiveness? Hey, thanks for posting. I'm jealous. I want.

I am only pushing 5.6 or .7 pounds of boost. Full Blown has verified the 500 whp on the trans. With these mods from SSP it would actually make the trans last longer because of the shifts. After you mentioned the "sport" mode earlier, I actually went out and drove it. I couldn't tell a difference with it on or off. It doesn't matter if you have a NA or turbo with these 2 particular mods. They will still perform the same. This stage 1 prototype I have would be as high as I would suggest for a DD because of how hard it does shift. The stage 2 prototype is almost ready and 2nd through 4th will be more aggressive and will be in my car for a second round of tests. The bog that you may have seen was due to me letting of the throttle due to traffic and a small vacuum leak @sspkris can answer your technical questions about the 4.88. This transmission is capable of alot more than what most people give it credit for.

The Dynamic Rev Management is a thing of beauty, yes it is just a replication of heel toe shifting but without the work . Other FR-S owners in the city thought I had an exhaust because I have tips and the exhaust sounds more lively than stock because of the DRM. Pair that with the red TRD Sound tube, and its a magical sound in the cabin.
