Looking at getting a billet servo fitted to the vy ss. Im sick to death of the sloppy stock shift.

Anyone know much about them ? Pro's and cons?

You can adjust your shifts in your tune. Dont purchase the corvette servo or whatever it is off ebay as you will already have one in your trans.

After getting a maffless tune in my old vx it used to spin the tyres hard into second with my foot flat and traction control on. TC off it would change lanes.

I then got a high stall which absorbed the upshift spin but created downshift spin.

I spoke to a good well known trans place and he suggested the billet one. Alot cheaper than a tune. I still need extractors and cai etc before the tune and cant afford it for a fair while but i can afford the billet kit which will do me for now.

Well technically you dont need exhaust or intake for a tune. You can put a rubber hose where the maf was. $500 from oztrack mailorder (might be cheaper now) better fuel economy.

When I first got it done I had a catback and standard intake and it made a massive difference. Its amazing what a tune does. Feels like a different gearbox. See if you can find someone that only has a mafless tune and go for a drive.

Think i will take your advise and save for a maf tune . Got tax coming back etc and i spose i can add the extractors bit later without messing up the tune.

repeat tunes should cost you alot less aswell, so its easy enough to adjust the tune after more mods
