hey guys n gals.
since i changed my gearbox on the weekend and put a hi-stall in it i have noticed when trying to let it rev out it will cut at about 4750-4800.?

also in some testing today on a very hard launch it seemd to slip and cut for a secondd while in first at around 3000?

will these issues be fixed when it gets tuned?

i got a similar prob when my box got rebuilt and got the stall uped to bout 2200 sometimes it jumps from 1st to second on take off and i still got a delay for reverse when warm
prob best to get it checked out/tuned sooner rather than later

a couple people i know used BPT and wer preety happy with the results.
also BPT was $1200 and XFT was $1600.

and mine isnt a massively specialized tune as its just bolt on gear on it.

I think you are talking about your BA as the car this is for?

I had an issue in my EF after I removed the speed sender input to the ECU after a manual conversion where the rev limiter dropped to 4800rpm.

You haven't been playing in around near the ECU with anything have you?
