I didn't install anything in the trans to break it. If a wimpy dyno tune breaks the mustang's trans, then maybe they need to buy a Tremec 6060 like everyone else has. But wait, they couldnt do it cheaply that way. Thats ford for you, makes a decent car, then ruins it with a basic part problem or issue. Until that trans goes away, I'm never gonna own another mustang. And that's sad, because the 5.0 was my third mustang since I was 18 and I liked it very much, but you can only take so much shit before you need to move on.

I can understand the frustration. The tune however disables TQ management which does impact the transmission although the MT-82 will handle 700ft.lbs. in the S197 chassis. The tune should have voided the drivetrain completely and they should have been consistent about it none the less.
I owned 2 cars with the TR-6060 in them. 2010 Camaro SS and 2010 GT500. In my experience the MT-82 shifted better than both. The TR-6060 isn't without issue either.
