Hey Jeff,
Do you think this chip would help out my tranny problem or make it worse? Where would you buy the chip from and is it safe for everyday city driving?

Default Nothing will save the Trans if you over stress it. The car just wasn't

built for 350+ hp. But I will take the faster shifts till I melt my tranny. I like the damn car and I will keep pumping dollars into it until my spouse gets pissed off..

Well if we have to rebuild the trans I will make sure it can handle a lot more than the stock one did.
