Hey guys..I've been a lurker for years here. I finally bit the bullet and took my truck to BTS for a tranny, 1.0 turbo housing and Casserly Stage 1 Single Shots.
The test drive afterwards showed a HUGE improvement in the shift but, due to air in the HPOP, the motor run funny. After the 300 mile trip home, it is better. Fuel economy is much better.
Now, I am noticing a loss of responsiveness and punch that I had when running the stock turbo and injectors with Jody's tunes. The motor is slow to rev and I can't make smoke on any setting. At WOT from a stop, it lags a full second then picks up strong, make 28-30 lbs, then short shifts before reaching a high rpm under full throttle...no smoke on any setting. On shifts, the turbo makes a chsss-chss-ch-ch shuddering sound and sometimes a squawl like a chair being dragged across a wooden floor.
My DPTuner would puff smoke (fuel to spin up the turbo?)and would respond immediately. My current tunes won't rev quicky even in nuetral...feels like stock tuning.
Is this normal with Cale's tunes and a BTS tranny?
BTW, those guys are awesome. Brian runs a great shop. I am just trying to get a feel for what I should expect with my current mods.
Thanks,
