Default Stand alone transmission computer?

Is anyone using one?I'm going to try a TCI TCU with my 4L60E in my supercharged Tahoe and was curious if anyone else had tried one.I bought the TCU with the intension of switching to a 4L80E later.

The TCU plugs into the factory wiring harness,has a control box with programable software to run the transmission independent of the PCM and will control either a 4L60E or a 4L80E transmission.I figured I'd try it on my 4L60E for now and use it to convert to a 4L80E this winter.
