Paul,
Good input/good advice. After thinking about it, my question is partially motivated by one of the irritating things about my 850. I do have the Dinan engine and transmission chips installed, but I find an occasional down-shift lag, which is frustrating when I'm trying to pass or change lanes quickly in traffic. I realize that most automatics have the same response issue but I've noticed that mine seems to be exasperated between 50-60 MPH (Group - Is this normal?).

P.S. To Steve S.: Sounds nice, but I'll pass at this point.
