I've been running one for about 2 months now and I love it! I had to delete 1 code, but I can't remember which one off hand. I'm at work right now, but when I get home I'll check my scanner and post it up. As far as I know none of the tables need to be changed because a resistor is soldered into one of the circuits to trick the PCM into thinking that it's still controlling line pressure. I've been told that you shouldn't throw a code, but I did, so I deleted it. No big deal. Everything's working fine!

I'm going to be installing a cam and tweaking the PCM on this car that is getting one of your transmissions installed this week. (Scott)

Vacuum mod here. No changes done to my computer. Think of it like the old HEI timing, when going WOT it will give you a higher timing advance. In this case, it just increases the Tranny fluid pressure.

That's what I have, and that's what Greasy Mech in San Antonio uses.
I know he's talked to a few other builders on here and that's what they use as well. (So I can vouch for 3 shops on LS1Tech that use them, but they all modify them, a little bit. )
