A 500 ft lb gain in torque in within 2000rpm.... That must feel like a rocket

This was just a dyno run only. My tuner took at look at the logs and graph and said there was a lot more power at that boost level to be had. He does remote dyno sessions so in the near future I'm going to the dyno again and work on it.

Just saw that edcmat-l1 is the one tuning your truck. Did he tune it on the dyno or are you sending him logs?

He did this one on the dyno. Started out via logs but he made a trip to Chicago so I went there to have it finished.

Well it was a good but yet poor night. Raced a Z06 tonight...no match...dig or a roll my truck ate it up. Waited about 20 mins and raced a stock 2010 ZR1 vette. From a dig again my truck walked away. From a roll the same but not quite as bad. The third time it was really a lot closer. Those three races were pretty much back to back to back with little to no wait time. After the third by chime went off saying transmission hot let idle. Was at 260! Let it sit and cooled off only to 210. Drove 7 miles in 60 degree weather and got it back to
260 on a very gentle 55mph drive. Let it sit again and took it home and now letting it sit overnight. Pretty sure it got heat soaked really bad. My IAT's on the run were almost 185 with engine temp at 194. Everything was getting hot. Should of let it sit between to cool off. Kinda a little sick to my stomach at the moment. Trans was shifting really hard on the way home at light throttle. I'm sure the line pressure is maxed because of temperature. Kinda sounds like I blew an exhaust gasket out as well as it sounded like I have an exhaust leak. What's the chances this transmission isn't smoked?? Really need some good news.......
