Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
After many months of owning this little electronic box, and hearing that it "makes you faster" from people who are using it with their ATS trannies.
I couldn't help but want to install it, so yesterday I did!
After consulting a friend at work for tips on finding a 12v power source in the fuse box, I was set.
The directions that came with the box were very straight forward for even an electronic illiterate like myself.
The installation took about 2 hours, about half of that reading, half splicing and finding wires and a little time for eating a hot pocket and drinking a coke!(union worker here)
Now, for the test.
I get it all wired up, now I go for the test drive.
I turn the the knob all the way on, turn off the OD and proceed to roll down my street, I feel the converter lock and the little green light go on at 20mph (just as its supposed to!).
Anyhow, I turn the knob back over near the off position (50-60mph lockup).
I then do some fast accelerations to WOT, I feel the Triplelok converter lock then I see the light come on and its full power to the ground from then on!
I tried hard runs in and out of overdrive, and the truck feels faster! (kind of makes me wish I had this box on when I dynoed earlier this month)
Now I have another knob to play with on the dash!
If you are looking for control over your torque converter locking up, and keeping it from unlocking (power loss), this box is for you. This box is also compatible with Exhaust brakes and is suggested for that purpose.
