Yea I wish these things were in tune with the engine like modern drive lines.

yeah Glenn, I'll second these sentiments. It's pretty good MOST of the time, butitwill occasionally do a shift at a point I don't want it to...as in too soon or it won't downshift on its own when I get on it....oh well.

Mine will downshift and will up shift according to the tune I have it set to. Funky, to me, is when it acts like the TC unlocks right in the middle of the shift, like it can't make up its mind. I call it a flare shift and I asked John about it and all he would say its something in the programing (PCM) that nobody seems to know how to change.
