I am not talking about a built trans. I am talking about a custom tuned trans. Two totally different things.
A built trans is generally just beefed up to handle the added power. They usually have the same shift points as stock so a modern transmissions should be better.
A modern electronically controlled transmission can adjust shift points, line pressure, torque converter lockup, and many other aspects through custom tuning. I am not talking about a canned tune that comes with a Bully Dog or Superchips tuner. I am talking about a custom tune by a professional via EFI Live, EZLynk, or MM3.
Most that have never driven one of these still believe their Ram transmission shift just fine because ignorance is bliss, but those who have driven a custom tuned 68RFE or Alison know what always being in the right gear at the right time really is.
Again, I am not the only one who says this. Pickuptrucks.com and a few others have said the same thing in their reviews when they drive the trucks back to back. Keep on thinking it is fine, just don't go drive a custom tuned 68RFE or new Alison.
