Fact, did it to mine. But mark where it was because sometimes it will cause a rough idle and you will have to put it back to atleast close to where it was.

yeah i read the thread about this on here and a lot of people said don't do it. toyota never made a shift speed / smoothness adjuster for the driver, and it seemed like that is what we're trying to make this into. so i would just not recommend tinkering with it.

It causes pressure somewhere else in the system, it says that in the thread, i dont think anyone has had problems due to this but it does change something in the system to make the shifts smoother/harder.
