Default When oil pressure fluxuaiton

I think thats speeled right....anyways I recently had jet hot long tubes O/Y vig 3200 stall, B7M transcool and trans go shift kit installed with a tune. I was driving home from work today and when i cam to a stop in noticed my rpms dropped and went back up then dropped again this happened about three times and the oil pressure was following it. The oil pressure would rise then drop. It would drop from normal operating pressure which was about 45 psi to about 38 and then the rpms would drop from about 1200 to 500? a while after the tune i ghad a missfire in the #4 cylinder and attributed it to a spark plug being forced in the cylinder a local shop[ did the work not me. So i replaced it with TR55's and msd 8.5s. Hope this is enough info. Thanks for any help. I also use to use mobil 5w-30 with mobil filter but recently switched to amsoil 5w-30 with k&n oil filter. I also run premium 93

The oil pressure is dropping because the rpms are. You're getting an erratic idle for some reason...the converter may have something to do with it.

well mine does that sometimes with a TCI 3500. Maybe as mentionned it has to do with TM. Should remove it tomorrow, we will see.

I had the same issue with my 3000 stall and when I had it tuned for the converter they raised the idle 100 rpm in gear and solved my problem.

Hey predator if you can update me when you get the torque management removed let me know if it works. The guy who tuned my car said he deleted some of it but im still not sure on how much there is to delete.
Thanks
