The puter reads a host of sensors and calcualtes the optimum engine tranny setting to gain the best fuel mileage. Basically the puter makes the engine and tranny work together as a team. And yes the puter will adjust the shift points based on your driving. If you drive like a grandma it will soften the shifts, if your drag racing it will firm up the shifts. If the puter senses your towing a load, it will adjust for that as well. If your in 44 it will asjust for that too. _____________________________ "Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference.
