    Most people make the mistake of having their tune set to have firmer than stock tranny line pressures to make it shift a little firmer. Then they go off and get a shift kit--which firms the shifts mechaincally versus electronically through the PCM. And once it slams their head to the back of the headrest or they break an input, they then finally realize what they've done and have the tune fixed. With any kind of shift kit for a 4L60e, you should have all tranny shift pressures set to stock. Let the shift kit do the work of firming shifts. You can also have about 80% of the torque management removed and still be in the safe zone.
