RE: Modified Governor In AT w/Stock VW Engines
So let me ask a very basic question.  What makes us think that the engineers
at VW  didn't know what they were doing?  What makes us think that the stock
match between RPM and tranny gearing is wrong?  And in addition what makes
us think the new shift points are better than what the original designers
came up with?
BTW, I understand the need to change the shift point in the auto tranny if
going to a Zetec or Subie engine, whole different power curves.  I also know
that the auto tranny in the Vanagons has a stellar reputation for
reliability and endurance when paired with the stock engines.  So why are we
trying to re-engineer what has proven to be a good setup?
