Hi, my name is zack adams. I am from pittsburgh. I have had my a4 1.8tfor about 4 months and have dumped too much money into it.
Anyway, I blew my tip transmission and I am having it rebuilt by a reputible euro transmission shop? (Gillece transmissions of PA) I am having the transmission beefed up, meaning custom torque converter and valve body calibration and new internals + shift kit. Now dont get me wrong I am not a mechanic, I am approaching this as a newb. But I was wondering what can I expect once I recieve the car back? Has anyone had a level 10 or IPT trans? Should this transmission be fine with my current mods, (chip) etc. I was quoted 4700 installed. Good, bad, ugly?
Thanks, and p.s. I searched

 

i haven't had the Level 10 done to mine yet but i am anxious to see how yours turns out. Keep us updated!

 

Get it back tuesday, its a done deal. I really hope this is a solution to my tip woes. The owner of the shop has been working on these transmissions since the mid 80's. I have not heard any negative feedback from anyone in regards to his transmission work so needless to say I am excited. I will keep you posted.

would have been cheaper to do a manual swap...i wish i did that instead of rebuild my tip. i'll be doing a manual swap in the spring
