The only question I know the answer to is will it void your warranty. Most likely, yes.

It increases line pressure which will result in stronger and more efficient shifts into gears. It will also cause more of a jerking going into gears because of the line pressure being raised. It is very adjustable and easy to use. I've had it for a long time, no problems what so ever.

If you need pictures of it and where it installs, let me know.

did you do the install yourself and will this allow the trans to shift faster?

Initially I didn't install it, my friend did it for me but I could have if I wanted to, it's very easy.

Yes, it will shift faster and you won't have those sloppy stock shifts anymore.

I have one of these on the Cavy, I love it, just don't turn it up too high! Mine is pretty high, like 80%, wich can be rediculous at times.

If you have a 4T40E transmission, it will work.
