you may have a problem with your trans or my need your pcm tuned. I have heard
of this before and it was a tune problem. Have you changed the pcm lately. PCM forless will do a grat job for u if u need.

Yeah, something's not right. There's a good bunch of upgraded parts that should be used in a unit behind a boosted motor.
