Default 2-3 shift hangs "help"

I think I got a problem with my transmission
when it shifts to 3rd it pauses for 1/2 sec to 1 sec
then shifts
It does this only sometimes
like at the track tonight
only thing I can think, is I had my tune set up for a stall
and aint got one yet and its acting up
or I messed up with the transgo
also at about 3/4 throttle it will bark the tires goin into 2
and wot barely chirp them
I dont know ,what yall think

if you think it is because of the tune doesnt nelson offer free upgrades i would get him his module back and try without the stall tune to it and see if it helps any other than that i dont know good luck though

Did it start doing this right after you installed the transgo?? Did you install the spacers in then 1-2 servo? If so your 2nd gear band is probablly not releasing quick enough on the 2-3 shift so both the band and 3rd clutch back and all enguaged at the same time.
As far as the barking at 3/4 and not at wot.. sounds like a tunning issue in the line pressure table to me. Your 3rd gear studder could be in the tunning as well depending on how Allen set up your shif speed tables and what he did with TQM.

The torque converter is locking as soon as it hits 3rd gear. Is this one of Allen's tunes?

Not bad .. it takes a load off the 3/4 clutch pack and puts it on the converter clutch.

Maybe a couple tenths??? Hard to say.
