Default Re-tune???

I have a tune from wait4me and recently purchased EFILive too.

Over the last couple weeks I installed a Transgo HD2 and a TB stall. Do I need to do any re-tuning for the shift kit and the TB stall? Does someone wanna look at my tune?

yea you need a retune to set the transmission up for the mods. Basically shift extensions might be tuned for the stall... and maybe line pressure adjustments and shift timing for the shift kit.

You'll need to zero out the shift times.
Return the line pressure to stock. If your trans doesn't shift as firm as you'd like, feel feel to increase line pressure just a tad to get the feeling you're after. There's nothing wrong with doing this.
Unlock the stall converter at wot. You'll get a bit more pull through the gears. This may cause higher trans temps, but a BM cooler will cure that.
You may also want to increase the tcc lockup a few mph so it doesn't drag the engine down at low mph.
Finally, remove 100% TM.

good luck,

allen
