you dont want to run the sonnax kit with a tuner that increases the line pressure this puts too much stress on the tranny, especially a stock one

Agreed on that. The Sonnax kit and NO line pressure by chips or tuners. But the Sonnax kit does increase pressure mechanically by increasing spring pressure - that is part of the kit.

It works very well.
