Default Tuner advice needed...

So, doing some upgrades now that the bride and I have decided to keep the D for a while. One thing that we don't like is the down shift points. It seems like often when merging into traffic or towing our boat it takes for ever and a day for the D to downshift. (Read, almost to the floor.) Then when it does it's more violent than necessary. I'm assuming one of the tuners out there would also address transmission shift points as well as adding a canned performance tune. I'm not concerned with the power level. That seems fine, and I have a different vehicle to suit that need when I'm in the mood to get put back in my seat. But, if a canned tune will also enhance shifting, I'm all in. Any advice you all can offer would be appreciated...

Thanks! Was just looking at Diablo's website. Will head over hemifever's now. Do you find the trans shift points improved with their tune?

You can do it yourself with a diablo, but it doesnt cost much more to use hemifever. He knows how to do these things better than I ever could. The shift points are the best part, imo

With Hemifever, the only tuning option for 2011+ is the Diablo, but with his custom tunes.

Yes, I was referencing woblik. You can do it yourself with diablo, but it doesn't cost much more to use HemiFever.

I was just saying that with HemiFever, you'll get a Diablo tuner still, but with his custom tunes.
