Yes. But the tune plus parts was too harsh. Had my tuner fix it. The servo and shift kit is plenty. Feels much better now. He lowered the shift pressure. It still shifts hard and fast but no so hard they break loose uncontrollably.

I have that servo sitting in my avalanche. Did you change it? I’ve been wanting to but the sound of my brakes are something out of a horror movie right now. I will prob order the parts and do that next week.

The vette servo? Between that, shift kit, and tune I'm loving the transmission. Shifts great.

What? They are just on the side of the trans and suppose to only take about 30 mins to swap out.

Go back to your subi’s.

I had the corvette 2nd gear servo installed months ago dude.

But at the same time I already had all the following installed.

Transgo 4L60E Stage 2 Transmission Shift Kit
2004-up 4x4 stepped pan filter
Hardened Separator plate application: 1996-2006
Initial tune
Cai
3" cat back
And the lsd from Steve

Since then I now have a custom tune for the engine and transmission based on those upgrades. So I don't know how much difference just the servo will make.

What do you think he meant by “between that” immediately after mentioning the vette servo?

That doesn’t mean HE installed it or someone else did?

If that is what you are asking, no I personally did not install it. I had the guy who rebuilt the rear and installed the rear lsd install it while he was at it.

Debating on ordering this. One of the lights in the cluster behind the speedometer has stopped working so figure this looks pretty easy to do.

I'd be curious to see more regular driving for me. That last tank included a few hours at idle sitting in parking lots with the heater going and no going above 45 mph with a lot of stop/go, off/on. Usually I'm closer to 60/40 freeway/city and was getting closer to 16 that way.
