The trany is computer controlled .. LS2Edit can change many of the values and give you the same basic changes you used to get from a 'kit'.

Q What does the TransGo Performance Shift Kit® really do for my transmission, how does it increase the durability/driveability, and why do I need one?

A Generally speaking, the modifications in the TransGo Performance Shift Kit® correct certain inherent design (or time caused) malfunctions, and at the same time, carefully revise the control system to supply more controlled oil to the shifting clutches and bands that activate the various gear ratios in the transmission. Additionally most kits increase the apply rate and holding ability of the Torque Converter Clutch (on models equipped with one). Most kits also increase lubrication flow for better cooling, converter feed, and of course lubrication to the gears, bearings, shafts, and bushings.



Interested where you get that info from? I always "heard" that edit can only change line pressure which is not the optimum way to achieve quicker/harder shifts. I might have been led wrong on this one, but was told that a transgo shift kit or something similiar is the only way to get these features while not working the transmission harder than normal. Just interested in what is the truth here? Thanks
