I was in and out in 1:15. The alignment was out of whack and the difference in driving the experience was night and day. No more play, nothing. Car drives perfect!
I also disconnected to the Sprint Booster because I was going to take it to the dealership for erratic/jerky shifting (particularly in DS mode) and as it turns out, the car shifted perfectly and the transmission was as smooth as butter afterwards. I took the car through a canyon run on Sunday the trans was shifting like it was out of sync...it was embarrassing because I had my pops in the car to whom I was trying to show off the car. Well, after removing the SB, I took for a run through the same canyon and the car performed flawlessly. I'm going to install it again on Friday and take her for another spin. I may be selling the SB as it may just not be for me. |
How much did the alignment cost?

Dude, you got a 550 - forget the SB! Especially, if it affects transmission performance... just my $0.02

Yeah, that's my thought. I'll give it one more try just in case before I put it up for sale.

Does the SB make so much difference on a 550?

Yeah, it made the throttle more responsive. Can I live without it? Sure! It would be fun if I could use it though..
PS I wonder if this issue transpires in any way on a manual transmission... :think: |
