Frustrating I ran at atco last week got two runs with MTs. A best of a 12.8 at 106. Ran again tonight the first run i ran a 12.9 at 105. Not bad considering it was hot and the sun was still out. The last 3 times I ran a 13.044 at 104. All of them consistent with nice 1.8 60s just seems slow compared to what i have ran and the mods my car has. My Trans is shifting so weird and got worse as the night went on. It lags the shift from 2-3. It will shoot past redline to about 6500 and bounce off the rev limiter for easily a tenth or two and then shift. Some times it also likes to upshift down shift upshift. So on one of the runs i tried to manual shift 2-3. That made it worse ended up having the problem from 1-2 and 2-3.
Any ideas my guess is electrical problem and the shifting point is off. Im not running again until i buy hp tuners hopefully this week. Sorry for the rant just annoying cause it doesnt seem to be a problem on the street. I hope my trans isnt going

Hmm...I hope its not the trans! but might be? I wish I could get 1.8 60fts. My times are always in the 1.9s....
Check the trans fluid lately? Did you have any tuning after the stall? that might be killing it?

I was told it was dyno tuned when i bought the car but not sure before or after the stall.
I was running 13.09 on street tires with a 60 of 2.0. I couldnt even launch the car then has to ease into the pedal.
