I am glad to hear it all worked out for ya! :)

I spoke to Darrin this morning and I'm in next Thursday for the H&R install and alignment. He spoke to me about my ride and he said that he'll have a look. I can't wait now.

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.

I knew it, enjoy the car :thumbsup:

Thanks to you and Gene for suggesting it.

Have you heard of any wierd transmission shifting on the 550s with the Sprint Booster?

I mean, it might still work out when you put it back in. Anyway, let us know :thumbsup:

PS I wonder if this issue transpires in any way on a manual transmission... :think:

No SB issues with manual on this end.
It took a few days to get used to but now
my shifts are silky smooth.

Although i will say that cold start shifting is a little more tricky than before.
