Cool Trans Didnt Like Dp

Just lost my trans today. I will be getting a BTS. Was wanting to know if anyone could give me a price of what you paid? I have to get it, but wont be able to order until monday. I have to know how big a hit my pocket book will take! Any info would be great cant wait till monday for price. DP TUNER works to good I guess, trans couldnt take it!

I paid about 3900 for mine. I guess you will need to have it shipped to you? When you get it you may need the chip redone for the BTS trans. Might as well call Jody at the same time.

Thanks for the reply! I thought it was going to be about $4500 after shipping and install, looks like maybe more OUCH. How do you like it?

How do you like the way it works? ATS seems to be about the same trans with 3 year 150,000 mi warranty. Jodi and Brian work together so that looks like the route to go. Spending $4500 to $5000 just thought I see what everbody thinks? I have the weekend to make up my mind, as I want my pickup to move ASAP!

True. However, BTS has helped people out for a token sum AFTER the written warranty has expired. Also BTS does not really car about how you "abuse" the truck.
