Stock engine, and cal, granted no problem.
Double the HP from stock,
understand that they intend for it to slip when it applies so that the
little old ladies don't feel that **bump**, and you have a conflict.    That
slight slip in the system all of a sudden is shrearing the TCC linings.
   You can't win.   You will be doing premature tranny overhauls without
some rethinking fo things.
