Attention tuning pros I recently purchased Hp tuners software and pulled the tune in my Camaro done by Texas Speed. I would greatly appreciate it if any of you professional tuners would look it over and see what you think. I am having problems with the transmission not shifting at WOT. It will hit the rev limiter and stall before it shifts. Let me know if there is anymore info needed about the car. Any help is much appreciated.

Tire size is too short. WOT shift mph and rpm are a bit higher than I run for the same gear/tire combo.
It might help to log it and check the shifts. I've seen them where the scanner will say they've shifted but they really haven't. Need to separate tune from mechanical.

The reason it hits the rev limiter/fuel cutout is the limiter is @6200, the tranny shift point is @ 6300, don't think that'll work. Why is the commanded PE @ 11.4-11.5? Are you planning to add a blower/turbo or nitrous? If so, better pull some timing!

How much was that tune? Sounds like shitty customer service. How can you do everything in 1 dyno pull, especially if you are paying for dyno tuning. I think you need to call up TSP and get your money back, thats unexcusable. There should be some type of regulation or law against this, better business bureau or something. They are basically stealing your money.

where's the /facepalm smily?
Oh, and my contribution.. MAF table blows, VE table sucks. I don't see how they can come in and say it's good, so I'm not bashing, just being honest.

This tune was done by Texas Speed? What are your mods? I will download it and give it a shot. It sure cant hurt considering all the negative response I am getting about this shitty tune from Texas Speed. I may eventually pull the car up to Albuquerque, NM and let the Dyno Edge retune it. This really puts alot of distrust in TS for me and my dad just ordered a 2010 Camaro SS and was considering taking it to them for some mods and tuning but this will probably change all that. I think I will call them on tuesday and talk to the owner and see if we cant get something done about this.

Chris,
Hey man, if you think the problem with the car shifting is in the PCM, bring the car back to us and we will retune it for FREE. Everything dyno tune done throught TSP has free retunes and every mail tune has a year of free retunes. I've been here for almost 5 years and I have NEVER seen Jason do a tune with a single pull. Also, we have never locked a PCM. If you want us to make some changes it just takes a call to setup an appointment and we'll get you fixed up.

Just curious, but have you made any changes with your software from when the car originally left here? It's not a big deal if you have or haven't. Just let me know when you have some time and we'll get you in to look at it. You can also email us the file and I will have Jason make some changes and see if it helps. We'll help any way we can!
