after installing mine, and only having the effect of the shudders reduced, im wondering if others got it cured to 100%..

I just spent 1600 bucks on a solution that didn`t work 100 % :(

I can't vote...no option for "no change".

I still have the shudder. At first, I thought it was better, but it's not.

Is that just for R&R or does that include the Suncoast? I want the Suncoast more for the towing I do. Sorry to hijack.

Chad, does yours shudder with the Transgo pressure resistor in-circuit - and what ATF was installed with the Suncoast?

Husky, did you delete that flex coupling in the exhaust downpipe, and did you use the oem exhaust hangers?

The flex coupling is still in there, (should it be deleted?)

I `m using the stock hangers too.

What i did is gut the cat, and cut the muffler off, then weld 2 bent pipes ( don`t have a pipe bender and was really not going to pay 100 bucks to a muffler shop to make me one), So the downpipe aligned with the exhaust pipe and that is it :)

My welds are by no means, profesional and some said they might rust quicker and become britle, but so far they have held on great. (if they break, i weld them again).

You done good, then - that flex and those oem rubber-isolated hangers help to reduce drivetrain vibrational resonances into the floorpan of your unibody-construction vehicle - angles\leaks or curves in the piping affect exhaust gas flow, but not resonances

NOPE, Still shudders.
It rides a lot better with the lower stall speed and I like the performance with the InMotion stage II, but I may have to go down to the ECO tune. The vehicle never shuddered until I chipped it.
