MX-5 'Burp -Free' Mod. Procedure

[IRPT]

Been meaning to do this for some time, finally got a round to it today. Man, what a difference! Thanks MX-5, great free mod.

With this modification you won't experience any fault codes and or a check engine light. The shifts are quick and hard (like they should be). With the snappy shifts, the car will be a little faster.

If you are unfamilar with this procedure check out this link:

Free is a good price for better performance.

Glad you like it.

Can I assume that the 41TE is the ONLY auto transmission built for the '01 & '02 [:I] ?

[MX-5]

It's the only auto trans for any PT.

I've done the Mx-5 improvment HOLD on to the steering wheel for the 1-2 shift it makes a difference, nice![8)]

Well, I did the MX-5 improvement over the weekend. I can really notice the difference in the pickup between 1 & 2, even seems quicker in drive. Thanks MX-5 .

I have persoanlly cut the wire in nearly 100 PTs!
Many of them at www.cruisethefalls.com last summer.
Everyone is happy.
I researched and tested this for 6 months prior to posting about a FREE performance mod on the 'net. Many think I should have sold the mod kit for profit, like the resistor trick mods on E-Bay. BTW, they don't work, mine does.

All it changes is the shift. It disables the timing retard and the injector kill during the split second of the shift.

It makes driving my auto PT lots more fun. Once again, thanks MX-5!
