Does the software provide quicker downshift speeds? That is my complaint with the stock software, when it downshifts multiple gears at WOT, the clutches slip for what feels like forever, softening the shift, and also softening acceleration. Once it engages completely, the car accelerates like a bat out of hell though.

Another complaint is gears it selects during WOT at rolling speeds. On mine, 50mph, D5, WOT, will downshift into 3rd, when 2nd gear still has more "range" left in that gear. It's worse at 80mph, where it'll downshift into 4th, and you have to wait for an eternity for it to get into it's rev range, but if you go WOT @ 79mph, it'll downshift into 3rd. Does the GTS software address this? Or does it downshift to the same gears at those speeds?

Florida highways on I-75 is full of cars going 80-90mph zone, you never know if you need to pass a slower moving truck quickly
