Question power fc, automatic transmisson

my car is an automatic and i plan own buying the power fc this month. but it does not control the automatic transmisson hold button. i heard that the stock ecu transmission control can be spliced together with the power fc. i must do this in order to be able to hold my gears out. please if anyone knows how to do this or has any other ideas let me know. thanks,
brad

Don't do it.
Go with a piggy back such as the PFS purple. I have that in mine and it works great. You need to retain the hold or the auto box will be a pain. Think what you want to achieve. BTW I'm going manual, I may sell the PFS PMC soon if you go in that direction drop me a mail.

AEM is working out full FD auto trans control with their ecu will be a better solution than the PFC fo Auto Trans FD's - the PFC needs mods just to run the Auto and (to my knowledge) is not compatible w/ the HOLD functions at all

Call Tuner M at (732)-548-8010 ask for Mitch, inquire about the UNICHIP, it works really well and is a standalone utilizing the factory sensors and ECU, therefore you will have no tranny compatability problems.
