Are you anywhere near the D/FW area? If so, give me a shout.

Where do you have the PCS tables set at?

Pressure Control Solenoid.

Basically, what I am asking is have you or anyone else modified you pressure tables. If so I would recommend that you return them to a stock configuration and see if that makes a difference.

he said he has it shifting 90% quicker than stock and that the pressure on the shifts or transmission has been turned up to 100%

Here's why I asked.... If it has been built using the PCS then the builder most likely turned the screw in the back of the solenoid. And then, if your Tuner has come behind him and turned the pressure up then you could have excessively high pressure at WOT.

That itself is detrimental in some cases as a condition called Solenoid Flooding may be occuring. When that happens the shift valve does not stroke. It is because of these variables and the fact that I have seen units fail because of poor tuning strategies that we install Vacuum Modulators on all of our performance units.

If you would like to discuss this, feel free to give me a call tomorrow.
