Its not because its more power its because the truck ECM wont allow high percentage fuel ratios until the truck is rollin with the TM on. Think of TM as releasing the beast its always there just harnessed on a short leash until you dial up 2 ,3 ,4 on your smarty. TM also automatically defuels the truck on autos in between shifts
So a higher number (1 being low, 4 being higher) for tqm will help the trans. I'm just trying to get a grasp on how this works.
