I installed a VIG 3200, B&M 16K tranny cooler, SLP LT's w/ORP, and a TNT F1 kit, and now under WOT the tranny shifts slow as Christmans on the 1-2 shift and the 2-3 shift just bounces off the rev limiter. What can be done to make it shift like it used to? HPP3? or just get an FLP Level IV?

 

First and foremost, check the fluid level. After my Vig3600 install, my fluid level was 1/2 quart low (a weeke later). This can cause undesirable shifting. If that is OK, I haven't the faintest. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

 

How are your LTRIMS?
Does this happen with the lever in D3 and D4? Have you given the computer a chance to learn yet - you rev a lot faster now.

Nitrous often requires the use of lower shift points. Are you using a window switch?

Dont know havent ATAPed it ye

Does this happen with the lever in D3 and D4? both

It has had 2 days now and still the same thing

Nitrous often requires the use of lower shift points. Like what? I thought you would shift around 6200 on the gas

Are you using a window switch? Yes, 3K and 5800, but havent sprayed yet, want to get the shifting right 1st.

 

usually everyone hits the 2-3 limiter after a converter swap. You just simply need to lower your shift points on the 2-3 by 1 till you get off the limiter... also bump the limiter up 100 rpms to 6300... no higher though for stock internals

maybe you just need to raise your 1-2 shift up some.. atap it asap.. that will help you alot find out whats wrong.

log your shifts on atap for a idea of when its shifting

did you check the fuild after you have driven around for like 15mins?? get it good and hot before you check the fuild.... low tranny fuild could cause those issues also!

 

unless i am blind, and i have been known to miss stuff, but i don't see a shift kit in the list. when you add a torque converter, it makes the shifts pretty sloppy, and that's probably the "slow" feeling you are experiencing. maybe the addition of one would help quicken/firm those shifts up.
