Did he mention the fluid he used?

This has me confused.... Also has me wondering how much truth there is or isnt to these ATF fluids being so different? He did say it makes a big difference on some of the new trannies due to newer technology so..
It does shift nice and smooth now but I havent done much driving due to it needing an inspection.
He only replaced one softplug that I know for sure...but I noticed he changed my oil filter because I had just changed the oil and filter prior to all this and used a different brand so?
I'm happy to have no leaks as of now except a bunch of exhaust leaks from unrelated issue of a rusted out pipe from headers to the cat.. It never ends....sigh.

I've heard the same thing regarding increased line pressure in the transmission as I have about shift kits. I've been running an SC tuner for five years now and it firms up the shifts rather nicely by virtue of increased line pressure and I've cut torque management down 88% for well over a year now, no problems yet...
