@bubba - havent had a chance to run it at state capitol, but definitely planning on it. Would love to get a 1/4 time on it.

@bluevics - haha yeah i think i may FINALLY be happy with what im getting out of it. Havent had it dynoed or ran anything at the track with my latest tune, so dont have any hard data for it. But im loving the way its running.

You have the same problem I had with my first jlp tune and that was a sloppy 1-2 shift. Mine usually ran it into the rev limiter as well. They fixed that problem but then it felt like it was going to snap something during the shift it was so hard and fast!

Yeah the first tune i had from him was a bit too extreme for my taste as far as the shifting. Felt like my whole driveshaft and rear end was gonna explode. I requested the shift pressure to be slightly more than stock in this one, i'm diggin it so far.

Yea I asked for the same thing but there wasn't much difference. Maybe I need to try again. He has a fairly fast turn around on the tunes which is nice.
