48re upgrade

I have a 2007 with the 48re. What upgrade can I do to the transmission to help it handle an extra 100 hp without having to spend alot of cash.

Thanks for your help guys.

trans go, servos, and a few other things you might as well just save your money live with the stock power and then when you have the money build the trans and do it right.

Shift kit or VB depending on how much you want to spend or hassle factor.

Billet front servo cover with extra seal.

Billet band strut, billet band anchor, billet band lever.

Gov solenoid upgrade.

DTT shift enhancer.


The above will allow you run the extra HP safely if you don't get too wild with the right foot.

nobody mentioned a TC? Probably the most important component of handling a power upgrade

This DTT Shift Enhancer, is it a "one fits all" or do they need to know your specific build?????

It can be, or, a specific setup based on your build. Tell them what you are running for TC, stall, etc, and they can come pretty close. Its changeable also if you change your setup.
