that stall will soak up some of the shift firmness, but doesn't mean its not running the same. It will feel a little "spongy" on the shift. Did you re tune after the gear swap and stall?

i added the the transgo hd-2 and the accumulator piston.... and yes i need to adjust the firmness and have tuner return line pressure back down because its shifting super hard.. but thats not what has me worried its my second and third gear pull.. it just feels slower then before... i hope it wakes back up when i get it tunes..i just dont understand how a tune would help!... its just gears and stall.. but ok.

post up some before and after logs, i wonder if you hitting different (lower) spots on the timing table, due to the loser converter... I remember having to mess with my spark tables after swapping converters cause i was hitting different areas...

IMO just go do some logging, setup the dashboard to show spark advance... When accelerating slowly and heavily (not WOT), watch the timing if the timing falls off quickly or plummets to nothing then raise that particular spot on your timing table... From what i remember mine would plummet to very low teens or single digits, adding some additional timing really helped. Then again, looking at your sig, you have a black bear tune so I bet you have a pretty good spark table allready, but never the less worth a look... that is how i did my part throttle timing adjustments.
WOT timing adjusts are really easy...

lol i can read tunes but i have no idea how to mess with them...im just going to wait to c if justin at blackbear sends me a new tune.. i just wanted to c what was the reason y it felt so slow but i think BLACKGMC u r right.. i mean it makes sense witht he looser converter im hitting different spots making my timing differently at different points... thanks.. i guess ill wait for my tune and come back and let u guys know if that was it.. does anyone else have a different idea y this is happening? thanks...
