I have the switchable ts chip,in stock mode excursion shifts great.When i change it to 50 hp or 75 hp it shifts hard,I called ts performance they said that is the way it is.Just checking to see if there is a better chip to use for a 2002 ford excursion 7.3 ?

Get Bill Cohron of PHP to re-burn it....I think they will still do it. If not, you can sell it and you can pay for over half a new Hydra chip that comes with 15 calibrations. And you never have to remove it to update the chips firmware or tunes via internet server.
Yes, I had TS tunes and they do shift hard. Kinda a good thing so the TC doesn't slip...but too hard IMO. Bills tunes are smooth shifting all the time and broader power band all the way through the spedometer.

We have a couple different options for 7.3L performance chips and can build tuning specific for your Excursion and your driving style. Let us know if there is anything we can do to help...
Mine has always shifted hard to. They told they have lighter shifts available. But if you have an upgraded torque convertor it will still shift harder.

May be true, but with my stock and BD torque converter it shifted as hard with me with stock and beefier torque converter. I just didn't have to worry about the engine output overloading the torque converter.
