Tanny mods

What tranny mods do you guys have?
I would like to have a better shift
I have been thinking of getting this (These transmission kits increase line pressure in the transmission, which reduces torque converter and transmission clutch slippage and improves shifting. Easy to install using basic hand tools.

Bully Dog’s shift enhancers improve shift and line pressure while reducing slipping and lowering heat. The end result is firmer, quicker shifts which vastly improves the driving experience and longevity of the transmission by lowering transmission temperatures. The shift enhancer will fit in all E40D and the 4R100 transmissions. )
I have scene this as cheap as $65.00

I have the Banks transcommand. Its good but true to Banks is that it is best for towing. It is load sensitive, which means the harder you step on it, the harder it shifts. If I make light throttle take offs, it shifts like a stock truck. If I make full throttle shifts, it shifts as fast as an F-1 car with electronic shifting( OK maybe not, but yhou understand). If I make a full throttle take off and then let off before it shifts, line pressure builds and then BANG, second gear feels like it fell right out. I like this thing, but $450 is too much. I wouldn'e do it again, I just had this belief that everything on my truck had to be Banks, thats changing with the wind though. Iwas actually considering adding what you want(bully dog) to mine and checking it out. Also I've heard alot of good things about the TransGo shift kits for these trucks. Do a search you'll find it for about $100. Maybe less.

I just ordered that bully dog shift kit to go along with my Banks transcommand. I'll let you know how it goes. Plus I also got rid of my 120hp banks big hoss chip, and ordered a 140hp ATS/TS 6 position chip. I'll need the extra holding power in the tranny.
