    Performance Shift just raises the shift pressures and shortens the shift times in the trans. It also enables the 3-1 and 4-2 skip-shift downshifts. Sadly there is no increase anywhere else in the system, no additional timing or anything


    But, of racing I would suggest leaving it on the whole time, cause it also rases shift points,letting you get more out of every gear......

    Thats All I got I sure others have more info about it

    It's basically a push button shift kit. Like blue said, when it's on, it allows your car to shift at a higher rpm than normal.

    No. It only affects shifts and you're not shifting coming off the line.

    Turning off TCS will help you coming off of the line, Perf Shift will help you afterwards.
