will it be around the same on a stock tranny with 50k miles? also, when i get the stage iv, i want to install it myself and was wondering how much, if at all, the 4 wheel drive plays a part or if there is anything done differently than on 2wd thanks

Reset the taps, then load the tune your going to be running. Don't hammer on it untill it starts to shift normal, then let her eat!!

I load the big tune in right away. Use common sense when you break it in or it will break you. Start out easy with a lot of stop and go. Start getting more aggressive with your driving as the shifts firm up.

Get a ATSG manual and study it as it will give you a lot of info and guidance.
Transmission Adaptive Pressures are the adaptive learn parameters that need to be reset anytime a change is made to the Alli or engine tune.
