I must be missing something here. I guess I'll go back to wrapping.

What exactly are you asking, Russ?

Isn't torque management in newer than 00 vehicles anyway?

Yeah, your tranny will hold up. For how long, I don't know. Could be 100 miles, could be 200,000 miles. The tranny in the GTP held up to 12 second power for 9 months before showing signs of wear. Not bad for a tranny rated for 280ft.lbs of torque that was having to put up with 450ft.lbs.

I don't believe a 95 has torque management in the PCM. At least not in the same manner (dumber) than the 00+.
