A chip does help a little. When I had my car dyno tuned we also worked on the tranny, using the lap top and going into the tranny program he worked on the tourqe converter and the shift points, line pressure, etc.. This is the absolute best way to get anything out of our atx w/o a major custom rebuild. It is a very noticable improvement and the tranny now better matches the motor by holding onto the upper rpms and firmer shifts. I haven't run it on any drag strips but the guys in neceg that have the atx have driven mine and can't believe the difference. It also depends on the tuner, Mike freedman is a ford tuning nut(mostly mustangs, etc.).
