I was wondering the same thing.

It is best to use both, that way you dont have to turn up the line pressure as much which is all around easier on the trans. You can certainly get good firm shifts with some tuning though so you dont have to use a shift kit, it just depends on the trans condition and what kind of power you are making. I mildly modded car will work fine with some pcm changes.
