Sorry for such a late reply,
It's just a 6 as I'm on my P's and has a few minor mods, and I got a chip from mace but didn't really fix what I needed, the main problem I need a tune for is the gear shifts, (it's an auto)
It changes gear at are 1800-2100rpm unless I put my foot down abit more, and gota drive it pretty hard just for it to change gear properly

you should talk to The1 as he will customise a tune for you, I have nothing against Mace but from the tune I had from them it was an old tune,
The one I got from The1 has all the updates and is adjusted to my engine via data logging.

Sounds like you might have bigger problems with the gearbox then. Changing the shift points with a tune for something like that is a band-aid fix.

It was changing gear properly until I put the throttle body on, and when I put the chip in from mace it fixed the problem a little bit but still changing to early

that's because the travel between 0-100% has changed, you can guess what the new calibration value will be but it'l never be right, you need to datalog the travel and change till it is correct again.
