Got one a few weeks ago. Very easy to use. Car runs much better. It will do the things you mentioned but it will not delete TM.

It is supposed to delete torque management,
Predator says it does and the feel of the trans
after I loaded the tune backs this up. There is
no power cut through the shifts. In fact, a little
TM (like only 2 degrees pulled) would probably
be better as the upshift is where you'll get
transient KR that takes seconds to all go away.

You don't get the choice to delete TM, it just gets
done for you when you Install Performance.
