Post TCI Torque Convertor and Tuning

I will be getting a TCI SSF3500 soon and wanted a heads up on what I need to change. Right now I have 25% stiffer gear changes and that is all on the trany part. Do I need to remove TM or just change shift vs rpm. What have most of you guys had to change after a TC install?

Thanks.

I moved shift speeds (MPH) around a bit and the shift adaptation time (the amount of time it takes the transmission to shift gear). I would have done this with or without the converter though.

You don't really *have* to do anything.

The TC was slipping bad but after inreasing the line pressure it was much better.

Here is what wait4me(ls1.com) sent me and I just gave it a test ride. Feels much better. I will know more tomorrow after a longer test ride.

on the base shift pressure vs torque put in this
