It doesn't use any tranny fluid or leak any tranny fluid or burn any tranny fluid or any discoloration or contamination in the fluid at all

Yes I can get it to move but it wont go past 30 mph but I can feel it shifting threw the gears just fine and I can hold the pedal to the floor and it still wont go any faster or do anything. I just put a whole new throttle body and maf sensor on it
