Does anyone know if there have been problems with these pressure boosters when used in conjunction with a tuner, i.e. too much pressure for the trans to handle?

I can see that if you dont have a tuner that increases the line pressure that it be good but if it raises it up to much and you have a tuner that already raises it to much I can see it being a problem. Just like some have issues running the transgo kit with the resistor and a tuner.

That is what I was thinking about since both SC and Transgo say not to use the resistor from the kit with the tuner.

I've done the TMR mod on my 03 and run a tuner. I suppose this mod doesn't apply to the 03's. Anyway, well done John, nice write up.

Theres no reason this wouldnt apply to 03's This doesnt affect torque management at all, only line pressure. It should work on 03's just as well as any other year. FINALLY something performance-wise we're not gimpy on!!

Wow, that's a surprise, being special I immediately figured it wouldn't work on the 03....
