New tranny, safe to tune?

Do you have the GH tune? Also where do you think you’ll get your mounts from?

I have a AJPTurbo tune. You have to remember, the damn trans has a brain as well. Both brains have to get onto the same page and that takes time. It is the same thing with the paddle shifters. The more you use them, the better they get. I don't use mine.

I have only put 1,300 miles on the car since Feb, and that includes a 750 mile round trip drive to Cali. I would say it took about 500 miles to sort itself out. I was told to wait about 1000 miles before I should start beating on it. I waited about 750 including the 360 mile drive to Cali, then promptly starting beating on it.

I am running the GH AO tune. Shifts feel quicker but not as harsh as LMS tune. When I first loaded the LMS tune it was very harsh first coupe of days, as said the computer needs to learn and it should settle in.

LMS has 4 types of shifts evidently. I was on the 3rd hardest shifting one and dropped down to the the second level. I can't imagine how hard the 4th must be .

I can't believe those shifts are healthy . I contacted LMS who of course said they were and been running them for years without issue . The 3rd type (performance) was certainly exciting but just seemed to jarring through 3rd gear to believe it wasn't hurting the granny . I could certainly be wrong - LMS has a good long history .
