Got my SCT today!

This thing is awesome! I got my custom tunes from Vivian and they are unbelievable.

One question, how long does it typically take for the tranny to adjust itself to the new tune? I thought I heard about 15-20 miles but wanted to confirm.

I think I am going to run the DJ's street tune daily, is that going to be relatively safe?

im not too sure if it takes that long to " relearn " i just load the tune, go for a drive letting it go through all the gears a few times then its good to go for me. the street tune is a safe tune, heck even the looney is safe as long as you pay attention to the temps. do you have gauges??

Turn and burn all day long. My tranny seemed to learn pretty quick, I can't remember how long. Sorry.

The gauges are coming in Tuesday so I am hoping to do them next weekend. I don't think I will be able to knock them out on a weeknight. I would imagine it takes a few hours at least.
