ALSO is the stock the recommended resistance or is there a preferred different resistance?
My ONLY desire is transmission longevity... so does one resistor help the longevity more than the other?
12 Ohms is standard, but if you are interested in extending the life of the transmission, increase it to 27 Ohms. This will raise the line pressure a bit to increase the pressure at low speeds to help prevent the band and high clutch from slipping at low speeds. It won't produce problems from too high a pressure causing binding, or higher gas consumption.

Also shift back to third in city traffic.
