Default I see folks complain about it but I haven't read an answer to your question yet.
I just had it done and I wasn't asked to sign any form as talked about below and the dealer is mod friendly.

Default RPM's in 5th and 6th are lower? Um... pretty sure a ECU reflash wouldn't change gearing..
That's really not possible - does the car seem to run smoother in those gears?

It's noticeably different though the temp in CT was at an all time these last few days, mid 40's to 50's. Could have something to do with it.
