Default smarty on sw#5 with stock auto tranny

Yes! I am a noob but I just wanted to get some opinions..I have the smarty pod on sw#3 but want to add a little more hp...so I was thinking I could add 15-20hp by programming sw#5 and running it at 85% of the hp by lowering the power on my edge cts...will that extra 15-20hp be to much for my stock automatic tranny without towing anything???

You are playing with a ticking time bomb my friend! You really need to at least add a VB and TC to your tranny. I wouldn't add any more hp then you have now without supporting mods. Your tranny will shred itself very soon....

It's not a grenade tranny! It's stock and with 2 grand in upgrades you'll be fine!

What exactly will I need? I was thinking about getting a full tranny rebuild that will be able to withstand the power when it comes time for that
