How did he adjust line pressure? Ecutek does not allow direct line pressure adjustment like UpRev does.

Also, please do not operate under the assumption that line pressure will be enough to keep the torque from grenenading the transmission. It'll just keep it from happening as quickly. Don't boost in gears 5-6-7.
All the boosted Z tuners I have spoken to in Australia swear by UpRev. I always mention to them that Ecutek is always regarded as the superior option, but they all still seem set on UpRev. So what am I to do, force them to go Ecutek?

And ofcourse I am not assuming line pressure adjustment is going to save my trans. But it is the least I could do for now I guess until I have the money for a LVL10 trans. But currently I will also have a heavy duty trans cooler, upgraded TQ converter, and the FI Billet flex going on.
