Well I would start by checking line pressure... there is a 1/8 npt fitting behind the neutral switch, hook a 0-400or 500 psi gauge up and see what you have....

test pressures in park/neutral, in reverse, in drive, and overdrive...
Ya, I did very little WOT before meeting with justin for tuning. I figured adjustments could fix it guess I didnt realize how hard it was shfiting. After meeting with him we were doing higher speed pulls and noticed the higher speed chirp.

Man, I feel sorry for all the problems you've been having. Hope you get this issue worked out. Did you put a check valve on the vaccum line going to the trans? If they left the filter off, there is no telling what all could be messed up inside. Let me know if you need any help getting it fixed...

Running a vac modded trans with boost requires a little bypass valve, did you install the correct one?

One more trans and you'll be caught up with me

Hope everything pans out bro.

Check line pressure, it is the first step in figuring out what is wrong....
