Default Trans tune

Is there a lot to be gained by a trans tune? Mine has not been touched.

since the trans tune would be torque based, on a stock motor setup you will need to retune once you ad engine mods. may cost you again

If the car is modified yes. If not it'd probably be miniscule. The part I like most is having the car auto upshift in manual mode. My tuner was also able to tune D(full auto) to have shift points more suited to my liking ie. not shifting all the way to 8th by 60 mph and holding revs out a bit more.

My 16 Z06 has had the trans tuned after installing my new engine and I love it. Alex Pietz did it and has the ability to tune remotely as well.
