Well finally got those first 30 miles out of the way on the Xtreme Street and hammered it WoW!! also got my first scare! At the top of forth gear on the first hard run it seemed to slip out of gear,let off immediately and let it slow down EGTs by the outlook were at 1442 by the guage 1300. the next two hard runs it didn't do it. thats all I did tonight the second two runs I was a little gun shy maybe . is this norm? any one heard of this happening? other than that just riding and rolling on to it up to 70 3/4 throttle it was shifting fine, the 3 runs I'm talking about where from a dead stop.

Is it set up to de-fuel?

I didn't think a SCT did that, I'm not running the BD anymore. this is off subject but how do you like the fabtech stuff

I believe it's a standard option But I've Been Wrong Before

SCT does not defule and its not an option..you have to actually drive it and be aware of temps and know when to let off.

It sounds like your tranny just had a brain-fart from a new tune. If it keeps doing it I would give Eric a call and get your tune tweaked, but it should ok.

Ok, then how do these guy get through a 1/4 mile and not have their trucks freakout,I'm not trying to be a smart azz, why didn't it do it the second and third run.

Thanks for chiming in Granny your truck, BAAAAAD! I don't want to kill my truck and it's not like I'll be dogging it every chance I get. I just want to know its limits, not a kid anymore.

It's odd to hear SCT miss a shift. Did you just load the tune and get rite down on it?
