Yes, you need a resistor to trick the PCM when you do a shift kit, to trick the computer into seeing the "right" pressures.
the 46RE is computer controlled, and the computer is a pain in the butt!
Get ahold of Martin Saine, aka MSaine he had made a name for himself in the Dakota R/T community for building quality torque converters and bullet proof 46REs.
He's a one man show though. sometimes slow on responding to emails, but always answers the phone when I've called. I can tell you he has good service and will take the time to answer your questions, even after he has your money and the parts have shipped.
