I have no idea what my tune consists of, we drove around for about 45 min as he logged it and made changes n reflashed it, did that 4 times before he was satisfied with it. But I still might have him completely turn off my TM anyways and see how the truck reacts with that. I do remember him saying he set something at .004 something.

Really don't think that's going to change anything. Should you really be pulling all of the TM, with rev-matching going on? It'd be better to leave the TM, but lessen the timing reduction at high rpm/load in the minimum final timing spark table. Does Blackbear use EFI LIVE or HP Tuners? HP, right?

I'm not sure, I'm sure if I tell him to turn it off hell adjust the tune according to that. But that's why I'm asking who has theirs completely turned off and how it drives.

When does it have the "neutral" feel? On upshifts, or WOT downshifts? Upshifts should be quick and firm, even with a decent amount of torque management left in.

Some downshifts will never be lightning quick, due to the nature of the trans. They require the trans to downshift via neutral, which takes a fraction of a second, and gives you the delayed feel. Upping the line pressure helps the clutches come on quicker, but it won't feel like an old 4 speed.

I run 50% TM on the 1-2, and 30% on the rest. Shifts are nice and quick, without chirping the tires. I've tuned a few trucks like this, and the owners have been very happy.

HPT differs from EFI LIVE, and that's where you're getting that from.

Ok so efi live can only turn TM off or on ...........and HPT can adjust it by percentage .........is that correct?

FYI in tow haul mode the TM is "ON "

Well BB tunes with EFI Live, he was able to adjust it but I'm gonna have him turn it off and adjust it with my foot when need-be. As far as the shifting, mid rpm's it's nice an firm but WOT and shifting at 6100 it then really stalls off then bangs into gear and feels "loose". Not a big fan of it
