Default Torque Mgt %

How much tq mgt has everyone pulled from their tune? I'm getting retuned after doing my cam/converter swap next weekend and wanted to make sure it's a safe %age at wot to where I wouldn't mess anything up!

Thanks in advance

Been running mine for two years with all of it taken out and still works fine. I hate how lazy it makes the trans shift

I've gone about 70k miles with 80% taken out with a total of 120k on the trans. I have never been to the track, but it has been driven hard. The trans is slipping now though, so it's time for an upgrade.

I have 100% taken out of mine as well, but I chose slightly firmer shifts than stock from my tuner. I also shift at 6500rpm which isn't that much and the tune is a lil on the rich / conservative side.
