Great way to describe it!

Even with a tune my car still has the slight lag in shifting while in DS. In auto the trans has been virtually a dream since getting my tune. No more searching for the right gear for the occasion. Stomp on it, it down shifts and goes! Driving rationally it picks the gear for fuel sipping. I'm in love with the tunes many adjustments.
