I don't know if this has been asked befrore but can you play around with the tranny program like shift points and tranny pressure is this possible with efi live?

Yes it is.

I haven't personally modified mine, but I have glanced at it. There are lots of option for modification in there.

From what I've heard the tranny tune is fairly sensitive though and it doesn't take too much of a change on certain parameters to start binding up hard parts. So if you do modify... maybe do it slightly lighter than you think?

As for tranny pressure, this cannot be altered using EFI.

you can and personally unless you are familiar with the workins of the trans i would not do much. if you want higher shift points than adjust just those. dont touch the shift timing that is were you can get into binding or slow azz shifts causing lots of heat and burnt clutches.

I have adjusted mine to engauge TC from 2nd up and 5t to 2nd on downshifts. I adjusted speed at point of shifts and a little increase in shift timing on 1-2 "still playing with others". all mods have a made a little firmer shift and maybe a little more mpg's.
