Those with built trans or trans builders (A4s)

I see alot of people getting built transmissions and then they fail and I have often wondered if any one discussed the trans table setting in the PCM once the new trans was installed.

I know from when I had an A4 I spent more time on those tables than the spark and fuel to get it to shift the way I wanted it to and when I wanted it to. With that came alot of changes in the tables and if those tables are never discussed with the builder how is the trans supposed to live? B/c my thoughts are that I probably was tuning a worn out trans and therefore those same settings should not be used on even a stock rebuild.

What are others thoughts on this? Does this conversation happen at the consumer/builder level?

What are the recommendations? B/c line pressure is critical and that is one of the major things that the PCM tries to control. I figure shift points are left up to the combo but what about other aspects?
