you can do more with the shift kit and adjusting the torx on the pressure modulator and PCM tuning will make a difference, but replacing the hard parts will be better. 
Shift kit or not?
Shift kit or not? What can i expect if i get a transgo shift kit? I want one but like do i have to shift it form 1st to 2nd by hand or can i just out in OD and slam the gas? Will it help in quarter mile times also? Are they hard to install

no need to shift it at all, youre not getting a reverse manual valve body, just a shift kit.
it will help improve the slushy shifts of the trans and that alone should be worth a tenth at the track.

I've done both tranny tuning and the shift kit and each helped tremendously. I highly recommend the Trango kit ... it does some things that only hard parts can do.-
yes, get the transgo shift kit. i have it and installed it myself. the install itself wasn't hard, the video wasn't worth dick on an f-body car, for part removal anyhow. i did the full race install because of my high stall plans. the 1-2 shift will snap your neck, and 2-3 is very crisp, as well. i'm very happy with it. i also ungraded to a larger tranny pan during my install, something to consider, as well.

yes, i think there are 3 levels of shift kit install. have to do your homework on the transgo kit itself. i put less than 3k miles a year on this particular car, which would explain the full race shift kit and ssf4000 going in.
