dp tuner needs

i need everyones input on this, if i get a bd torque converter and a bts valve body would that be enough to give the 140 smoke on a dp tuner justice and more important would that keep my tranny safe!?

the 140s tune is not an automatic tranny destroyer, it all depends on how hard you drive it. now that being said, if you do HUGE burnouts, and powerbrakes then you WILL destroy and unmodded tranny. If you just want to give a little love smoke to a ricer then you can easily do that in the 80E or the 120R setting.
