They are not there to find, you can buy the transmission shift tuning option for $40 though

Not a ripoff.

You get full control of torque management for your WOT and PT shifts and all your PT shift points 1-4 up, including prime and 2-5 down including prime. Great program and worth every penny of the $40.

Shift pressure (line pressure) is not an option yet and where do you see that online for Dodge? If there, must be mistake.

Obviously an error. Line pressure is not an option, yet.

Reducing TM further, which is on the list, will make the shifts more aggressive.

The trans options are worth the $40 and plenty more. I would not drive my truck without having a custom shift schedule and custom TM settings. It makes that much of a difference.

Ask anyone who runs the trans options if it makes a huge difference or not.

Oh yeah! I put my truck back to stock to take it to the dealership and every time it shifted, my head seemed to go forward waiting for the shift to complete. The lag in stock shifts TM is horrible. I also think the Advanced Trans Upgrade saves wear and tear on the clutches because the lag causes the clutches to slip. I have my Part Shift TM set 8.8% and my WOT TM set to 10% (of stock TM) and the shifts are crisp and clean.

I hope you and yours had a wonderful Christmas buddy!

I had to tune my truck back the other day. It's truly a dog without the tuning. Once you tune it back, that's when you really notice the difference.

Same to you Sil! We've postponed Christmas by a week because my wife and daughter had to work Christmas Day this year. Those hospitals need to be "manned" 24x7 ya know. My wife is lead CT (Cat Scan) Tech in the ED at the Level 1 trauma hospital in Rochester and my daughter is a microbiology lab tech in Buffalo.

Have a happy and safe New Year.
