I think its because when the dealer installed the tranny again THEY made the SAME mistake I did the first time (which annoys me because THAT'S the reason I paid the damn dealer to put the tranny back on!!).

Now, if that is NOT the reason and they used the special tools, then its something inherent with Comptech - however I have a strange feeling its the install-error. I'll keep you guys posted on what Acura says.

I have a video of my car running at Bakersfield... however its a shitty run with a mis-shift (13.4 @ 109) - its not from inside though so doesn't look that out of the ordinary.

Now tell me that that's not the nicest sounding 6 cyl. out there. Seriously, our engine sounds great. And although the sound a more pronounced with this modified car, the nuance is identical after 5K on stock cars. I have driven a lot of cars and this is the nicest sounding 6 cyl. engine and better sounding than some V8s even.
