Where is the bump on decel? I know raising the idle rpm to 950 above 37 mph and was a fix for one I did. My problem was a bump off idle while decel from 55mph to about 40.

The bump has only happened on the road never at the track

That's the same as when I was seeing it, on the street.

Or leave drivetrain parts all over the track...

Nice new best John! I swear you guys should try manual mode, swear it'll go faster and save you all that time messing with the other programs. You have the MPH for 11.5-11.6 and manual mode will drop that .15!

There should be a idle chart based on gear and mph so you can leave the base idle/ lower mph "stock". HPTuners has the map but I am not sure on the EFI live stuff.

Two attempts and it helped..Not gone but giving me a direction to go with.. I could see the rpms drop like a rock and then the hard shutter.. Going to try stepping the the rpm to slow the drop. I'll post up what if anything gets rid or or softens it

Great pass, I'm hoping to run mine Friday night if we don't get rain. Hoping for 12.00's first time out. You've got it dialed in pretty good. Awsome

Make sure you have DFCO turned off. That drops rpm like a stone!

Odd yours does that. Mine did exactly that with the Livernois tune but then went away with the RPM tune. But we know every trans is different....

Very true! We talked about that at RPM.

Yeah true.... I have copies of Daves and Roys tunes..... All three of ours are almost identical in the trans tune... Maybe stall size is the factor ??? I have a 3000 and they both have a 3600 I believe

The original tune before gears? I thought Roys stall was lower like 3200 and Daves was 3600. I know my tune needed to be tweaked a couple times before it was really good with stock gears, then twice with the 3.45's.

Roys and Daves are both from after gear change... I thought Roy had a 3200 but last Wed he said 3600...
