4EAT owners please give me feedback
I'm currently awaiting my modified valve body that I just picked up and wanted to know what the other 4EAT owners have experienced with it?
I have already done my research on it but am to excited to wait and find out! how streetable is it with the upgraded TC? I've had the upgrade TC in my car for a while now and I notice shifting problem that's the primary reason for the VB upgrade...
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

I had modded VB on my AT Eclipse before. With it, the car will shift very fast. AFAIK, it will not change the shifting points. Just how aggressive they are. It was very streetable. During 1-2 and 2-3 shift, if I lifted off the gas in the right time and mashed it back, I would get mad wheel spin. Haha. Impressive with FWD AT.

which upgrade? the upgraded TC is about $500 to get the TC modded however if you do not want to have any down time with your car you'll have to purchase a used TC and send that one to protorque for modification. shipping is about $80 both ways?
The valve body is $700 for modification and for no down time you can get one for about $450 or so... I was lucky to find one that was already modified. Levelten is the one that does the valve body modification.
