Picked up an accessport but havent made up my mind about buying the TCM tune.
I have a 2020 which shifts way better than my early 2019 Raptor, it shifted like dogshit.

Read lots of positive stuff about the TCM tune but the posts are not from 2020 owners... any 2020 owners with the TCM tune? What is your opinion? Worth it?

I have a 2020, stage two goosetuned. I opted for the tcm tuning and feel it is so much better then it was stock. Smooth shifts throughout in normal mode. Sport mode smooth as well, probably comparable to normal mode on a stock truck with faster shifting it seems.
All in all, I hated the stock sport mode with the harsh shift points and the new tcm tune fixed all of my issues.
I'd vote go for it and you won't regret it

I have a '20, with a Stage 2 GooseTune with a TCM. I wasn't having any shifting issues though.

I can tell you this, I can't put into words how the tune changed my truck! The truck is incredible! The acceleration is unreal. The throttle response is unmatched. I'm so glad I did it, and I did it with only 1500 miles. Winfield is The Man!

So do you feel like the TCM tune made the tranny shift better? My 2019 was AWFUL.. the 2020 is great, no issues with shifting.

The drive-thru
'20 here, I also opted for a stage 2 goosing w/TCM. I actually liked the harsh shifts in sport mode but was getting frustrated with the laggy and confused 3-5 shifts. Around my area there's a lot of 45mph speed roads and the transmission settling into 10th around 42mph was getting annoying as the stock logic seems to favor adding boost under acceleration instead of dropping gears and increasing RPMs.

Overall I'm really glad I went with the TCM tune. In normal the truck is very smooth and enjoyable to drive, the 3-5 weirdness is *almost* eliminated (I still occasionally get a laggy shift when the trans is cold on the first or second shift) however it is still miles better than OEM. In sport mode the fast and hard shifts are still present which is just part of the fun IMO. The truck also sits in 9th around 45mph and happily drops to 7th when it's time to boogie.

I think the TCM is worth it overall, you'll notice it's benefits more often than the additional power in day to day driving.

I can't really answer that. I didn't have the harsh shifting members talk about. I know that the GooseTune has my truck running extremely well, and I'm more than satisfied.

Another 2020 Stage 2 Goosetuned with TCM here. I fluctuate between OEM+ and Sport every so often. I get a weird 4-5 shift once in a while, but overall it's awesome and waaay better than stock.

So you 2020 with Stage 2 tunes...have you been to a dealer with it? Any warranty issues? I have 3000 miles on my truck and thinking about a tune but worried about warranty issues.

Edit - has anyone had emissions issues with the tune?

I have not, but I came to peace with potential warranty issues before deciding to go Stage 2 with the glaringly obvious FMIC.
