Most people max out and/or zero out the tables via LS1 Edit, where the max input torque is like 1000 ft-lbs, the timing pulled is very low, etc.

Basically what it does it pull ignition timing during shifts to reduce stress on the driveline. While this good for the parts, it is bad for performance. Heck I heard it pulls timing when going from a dead stop to WOT suddenly too. It is just a "band-aid" fix for GM's weak drivetrain.

Shift Kit - http://www.kdsperformance.com/tranhigpersh1.html

OD Servo - http://www.kdsperformance.com/ovsupser704l.html

Intermediate Servo - http://www.kdsperformance.com/supser700r44.html

After dirving the truck for about a day, I think I may pull the 1-2 washer out and run no washers in the accumulator for the 1-2 shift. It kicks just a bit more than I like...and when I delete TqMgt the shifts will get a bit more aggressive also, consider this also. When I pull that washer, my 1-2 will be like my 2-3 and that is plenty tight.
I would try swithing to a vette servo instead, those billet servos are brutal,vette servo has all the holding power you will ever need,i can see using the billet servo if you have 600HP or more.

The shifts are not brutal at all, nothing like a manual valve body...they are quick and tight. The 2-3 is the perfect shift firmness for me. My 1-2 is harder than my 2-3 as I tossed in a washer in my 1-2 accumulator. Therefore if the washer comes out, the shift firmness will decrease a bit to the level of the 2-3, which is exacly what I want.
