    The shift kit can be okay but I have seem some mix results and some saying it didnt help much.

    Yea that boost controller from IPT is what I am talking about and will work good and is convenient. But I made mine for less than 5 dollars vs 175, and the only difference is that I have to phsically remove a plug to switch from normal to full line pressure and all you have to do is turn a knob with it. Also mine lets me switch gears with toggle switched while that will let tranny shift by itself but just harder.

    Shifting at full line pressure is the best, it feels just like a cvt (continous variable tranny) car. The nose never drops and it shifts so fast you dont even know it does shift.

    But doing it my way is cheap but have to shift by self and pull plug

    IPT's box the car will still shift its self (tcu), is 175 bucks, but also lets you have varying degrees of intensity.

    With full line pressure, it shifts so effing quick and hard I cant see anything making it faster.



    both fast autos at full line pressure

    stock tranny with full line pressure exactly like my set up but he isnt shifting himself. He did what that IPT box does but himself and he cant change intensity.

    Dodge would have said that a poverty version SOHC and FWD would be better as a lower end car to sell more versions in the states.

    Mitsubishi mounted the engines in FWD style, not Dodge. They knew all along they were going to produce and sell FWD versions.

    All I said with my statement is that the SOHC existed before the DOHC. The DOHC was developed because of the SOHC.
