Default anyone running stand alone trans controllers?

I have a TCI controller that I will be pulling off my car since I am getting rid of the paddle shifters and is this something anyone uses for conversion.

I havent read much on them. Most just switch to a manual valve body but since you already have the expensive part i would use it.

No, they are not. I run the tci controller on a 06 Z06, its logic is not the same as GM, but if u understand it it works fine.

Well, the controller is required to run the paddle shifters.
