Okay with my chip flipped to any position (besides stock) the shifting pattern is all crazy, well from 1st to second and second to third is good but 3rd to fourth is hard and then pretty smooth into OD.....When I get on it hard, it sounds like a grinding noise coming from the TQ. So my question is do I need a TQ or a new tranny or both.....I dont have alot of money to spend so I was thinking of maybe just trying a TQ but figured I would get the experts opinion here on the org.....Which TQ to get, I will never make huge HP like yall and remeber I dont have that much money....:doh:

I too thought I had a tranny problem with my 02. Noises that didn't sound good. It started after I replace the stock air intake with the AFE stage II. I contacted John Wood of Woods Automotive in So Cal (down by the border). I was dreding paying for a new trans but willing. John said that I ddin't need one (honest guy!) what I needed was a new turbo housing. I was hearing Turbo "surge" that you couldn't hear with a stock intake. I see you are in Tennessee so John is too far away to take it to him, but he's great on the phone also. There's also another gent out in Arkansas or Alabama that suppost to be excellent trans guy too. Good Luck.
