Blue top Optima, interesting choice.

I have the transgo kit, got it from Troyer. I'd size it up to stage two if I were you. I am thinking that I am going to get a FTVB kit as I don't really like the shifts in the transgo. The 1-2 is horrific on level one, I think I could actually hang under the car and shift it faster with a ratchet. But its supposed to firm up if you up it to level two

The factory tech kit comes with the accumulators. The transgo does not. The factory tech kit is reversable. The transgo is not. If you installed a transgo you now need a good valvebody because you ruined yours.

Sounds good, way fast. Let us know how you like the kit, and what setup you go with. I was recommended a setup in this thread.
