it should work just fine on your automatic...i believe your only problem will be that you need a way to tune your pcm for the tranny...if iirc

Nothing from a transmission standpoint... It's a piggyback that controls mostly spark, fuel, and a plethora of other parramaters normally controlled by the ECM.

I can tell you from my experience its great for fuel control and spark but won't do anything for your tranny. im going to continue to use it running secondary injectors with the hahn manifold instead of just a 5th injector. but I will be using clear image to remove PE delay and adjust my limiter and governor. the smt units are very user friendly to tune let me tell you. if you have questions about tuning it or anything else you can pm me im always available to help.

the smt is going to control tuning for about 400whp. it will have no problem doing so but you must use secondary injection. it won't control the primary injectors. ill be letting the stock ecm do that for me.

The 4k rev limiter is only when your in neutral. and you can get past the governor but you would need 2 smt6's. because the road speed governor setting runs off the crank position sensor inputs. so if you wanted to pull timing and get past the governor you would need 2. but its not worth it anymore, just wait for clear image automotive to release their tunes and get a custom one from them.
