Default Trans tune

10 speed owners. For those of you that have a trans tune that eliminates skip shifts... how does the truck behave when slowing down? Does it shift down through every gear sequentially as you are on the brakes?

No, it does not drop into every gear when slowing down. I'm running a 5Star 93 perf tune.

No joke! The truck shifts so much better than stock. It's crazy.

Anyone else have an issue with their 10 speed being too high of gear, I can I feel the engine bogging down on slight incline when the truck is doing 43 mph in 10th gear. Not sure if the bigger tires are causing this.

I'm really glad to hear this. I just ordered my engine/trans tune from them and was reading the reviews on the Raptor forum. There is a lot of hate on 5* over there it seems.

I wonder if it's related to tire size and the change in actual MPG vs RPM. I'm not sure what controls the gear to RPM decision within a transmission.
