    this is a prime example of why i dont run mail order tunes anymore. get someone local that knows what their doing and fix the tune and also check to see if the trans is hurt or not.

    Look on the bright side..apparantly it is impossible for a tune to hurt your transmission (according to all in here) so you should be fine...whatever...lol
    lol whoever said that was a complete idiot. a tune trashed my stock tranny a tuning issue trashed tylers 7 trannys.

    his builder is great and has a proven tranny. Do you even know whats going on with the tune in that truck or are you just flying off at the mouth. Btw Greg went threw it 4 times in a short time as well. AFA you tranny goes it may be taking a dump. If you have friction particles in you valve body, sylinoids, filters its not going to shift right also it could be the converter flairing and if it is then you definatley got trash in it. Sounds like its time for a built unit and new verter

    well turned out the shifting issue was low tranny fluid. but the truck is still not running 100%, so I found a local shop that can dyno tune that I will probally end up taking the truck too if I cant get this problem fixed.
