It's completely different from the old kickdown cables because it controls line and clutch pressures, not just shift points.
Yeah, I knew about the functionality of the TV, but this being my first time messing around with it, I was shocked how much difference could be made in the overall driving characteristics. I have a lot more respect for this tranny now.

I don't think I was doing any direct damage, but yes, probably with the soft shifts, I put some wear on the clutches. I know I was loping it in 4th at too low of speeds also, but I was aware of that and tried to minimize it.
