Torque Managment!!
Thanks
AJ
in the 4000-5800 rpm area most PCMs have the timing lowered in some shape or fasion.Mine gets as low as 23deg in one spot then by 6000 I am back to my usual 28deg. Maybe that is what you are feeling. Or if you have a stock tranny with no shift kit on a newer 01-02 car it is going to feel sloppy even without TQ managment. Have you ATAP or TechII'd it yet to see what your timing is at during this time or if you are getting KR?
Also make sure your trans fluid level is perfect or else that will cause it to feel funny. If my fluid gets slow that is the first place I feel it is in the 2 to 3 shift because that seems like where we have the least line pressure.
And lastly I had all kinds of problems with a bigger stall and a ported MAF. All my problrms went away when I switched to the SLP MAF.
98's have the leats worries with TQ managment also so I wouldnt think that you could be getting much. Also look for some of the posts in the driveline section regarding ported MAFs and TCs because you could be getting a loss los line pressure but 98's usually don't have this problem so I'm not sure if that is it but it couldnt hurt.
As for your exact question, I will look around in there again once my laptop is up and running again later today and see if I can help ya.
My ATAP should be here tomorrow.. what selection is the one where it shows how much timing is being taken out between shifts?
THANKS ALOT!!!

The 3 sections are:
- Max TQ
- Abuse Mode: Torque Reduction (% torque reduction)
- Torque Reduction: (% TQ Reduction @ RPM)
Correct? I've got max tq set to 500 and they other 2 greatly reduced. We'll see at the track what this does!

Ken, we need your help on this...
I know it can be removed. I've seen 2 cars with bad TM. After PCM's come back from Ed W. - no more TM problems!
Help!
