Ok, so I pulled the wire today. Honestly there isn't any difference in (down)shift firmness or speed -- remember, this is with a programmer already.

It does improve power delivery immediately following a shift. It also seems to improve part-throttle response & driveability, say when cruising around 40-50 in town.

It is a worthwhile mod with or without a tuner, especially considering it takes like 10 minutes to do. Just don't expect night and day difference when you already have a programmer.

Yes disconnect the battery to do this.
The truck will then be safe from any electrical gremlins plus, you will also do a "cold reset" of your PCM so when you come to "romp on it", it will re-learn new values.
I feel a BIG push back into my seat at WOT on the 1/2 shifts and also an improvement in the 2/3 as well.
I have no programmer fitted though.
Hope this helps?
Al.

That is exactly what the mod does. Only noticed at WOT shifts. I have no experience with a programmer so I can't answer those questions.
