TRE has jerked me around for 10 years. I thought I would give them a shot after enough time had gone by to forget about the last time they screwed us. At the next opportunity they did it over again. Once they get your money you do not hear from them again for weeks and months until you threaten to write a negative review in the forums and magically they answer you after about 15 emails.

I vouch for this, and forget about warranty, they will give you alibis just to get away from it.

Well finally got everything in. Sorry for such a late update. So far the transmission and TC feels good Very solid and precise shifts. Getting it into second is a bit notchy, but I'm sure that will disappear after break in. Car is def overall quieter, but I still have that annoying whirling decel noise, however that's just how AWD's are period, and I doubt anything would really change that :P I also still have a very annoying rattling sound when free reving at standstill in neutral however, ARGH!! Nothing transmission or transfercase related though. Seems as if it's coming from the driveshaft (Seems like it shakes more then it should when reving and not moving. Going to replace it this weekend, wish me luck guys.

Will update again once I break it in and really rip on it

Off Topic
I also threw on a set of Work Emotions CR Kais 18X9.5 +20, but I rub in the rear when going over a bump. Hopefully a bit of camber will fix that. Will post pics soon in another thread
