Lock on Tunes? Does nebody know whether or not that Vengeance has a lock on their tunes..my brother tried to tune my car with hptuners to make it downshift when it is supposed to but it didnt work...worked on his fine
No error........I adjusted a whole bunch of stuff for the transmission like pressure, shift time, and shift speed since his car will only do the 3-2 at like 40. It has a new tranny and torque converter and the thing is running on a tune that was intended for like a 3k stall. So it don't shift right. It shifts just like the last tranny that bit the weenie. Acceptable but not right.
I reflashed the whole pcm instead of just doing the calibration and went to drive it and the same thing.
I probably need to turn a code on to see if it even does anything. But no I got zero errors. I even saw the gauges cycle and heard the pump kick on and off.
Any ideas?

If you were able to re-flash the PCM then I don't see how it could be locked. Did you read the file first then re-flash or just flash in a tranny tune that you made? If you just flashed in the settings then you wrote over the existing tune and it is lost.
I read it and adjusted the settings on the file from the car. It was tuned already so I'm not touching the fuel/spark tables. Just tranny stuff since he is on a stock tranny now.

Unless he changed the right tables then it should make a change, Inless vengence is using one of the custom os tunes that i sometimes use, it would be using the performance tab instead? Why not call Vengence and ask them to make changes. They can set it up.
It wouldn't shift at all if the pcm wasn't running the dang thing right?
I am retarded almost.
Checked over the tune again.
I use hptuners
On the speedo tab the current tire and gear ratio were correct.
The calculated tire on the other hand was 33.something...WTF????
Even after I re-commit it goes back to 33.
Manually put 24.91 and bam..............The car shifts great a little too hard but I can fix that no sweat.
Now how the hell did 33 get in there and how did the guy that had it drive it that way for years?????????
