    I didnt feel like sending it back and having to pay for the shipping + restocking fee so I decided to keep it and I installed it today. I didn't change the shifts or anything yet, but I can definitely tell the difference already. I'll probably get a custom tune some point down the line. The shifts said like -5%, -15%, then 5%, 15% and so on.... so do I wanna go +%, or -%??

    + % will be a firmer shift and - % will be softer. I would firm them up 5%

    I think I'll try 1-2/10% 2-3/10% 3-4/5% and I'll see how that goes. Wanna see how hard it shifts and i'll adjust it from there. I'll reprogram it today after work and I'm going to have a couple more questions to ask, I can't remember everything it had listed so I gotta look at it again later when I reprogram it so check back on this thread later tonight please

    u should be able to bump the timing, rev limiter, shift points, tire size, and play with the fuel curves also. I know I could on the diablo.
