The shift kit will be a little harsher on normal driving, but I would recommend setting the ECT to normal rather than power, and this will combat a little of the harshness.
On WOT the shift kit will be quick and crisp and feel fantastic.
Are you also looking at getting an oil cooler for the tranny, as the shift kit is going to heat that oil up much more, so for harsher driving, it's going to need an oil cooler fitted.

ok, how harsh is harsh? when the gear changes while underboost (especially 1st to 2nd gear) i feel a hard gear change? is this normal for soarers? i had a trans flushed 2 months ago.

As Steven said, don't get a 1.5 shift kit if you're not taking it on the track. You will love the stage 1 with the line pressure backed off a bit.
The only times you will feel a kind of "jerk" is during soft acceleration and in close traffic (crawling), so PLANT IT and then back off. No problems what so ever.

I found a 1.5 was ok on the street too. It was a lot smoother than I thought it would be and it was smoother than the stage 1 shift kit I had ridden in a couple of times.
This could come down to line pressure adjustment but I think the 1.5 from MV is not only faster but a better design from what I have read.
