Transmission Shift Programming....

Any way to firm/quicken/tighten the shifts on these cars? I ran a blown cobra last night, and would pull away until it was shift time. I've done the sneaky reset, but it's still VERY slow to shift.

I've tried letting it shift in S, shifting it in S or M...still very slow.

Open to ideas. May head to the track Saturday and want to do it right.

No, its not available for my car. I'm running a Dyno-Comp prototype line pressure TCU only for the C55 at the moment.
