Several months ago I rebuilt the valve body on my 5r44e. Added a shift kit while I was in there and used the "heavy" springs. At first the thing shifted like a beast. Super firm quick shifts and awesome fast downshifts. But after a while it seems the computer just re-adjusts everything and it ends up shifting like stock again. Not bad but just seems like it erases all the benefits of the shift kit.
Anytime I reset the ECM (unhook the battery for a while) it goes back to shifting awesome again for a while... then computer adjusts it back to stock again.
Is there any way to tell the computer to eff off and keep it shifting firmer i.e with a tuner like a SCT? Never messed with tuners so no idea if any work for the 5r44e?
