    The delay from when I manually use the shifter and when it actually shifts gears is horrible on my GT. I'm guessing this is something that would be improved with a tune? My G8 is stock, other than the intake.

    This mod will not affect actual shift times but the time to reach down, make the shift, then put your hand back on the wheel is greatly reduced. Plus, and more importantly to me, your hands stay on the wheel.

    A transmission tune makes a HUGE difference in driveability and shift times. Well worth it!
