Default SuperChips Help

Okay so I've had a superchips tuner for my truck for a while but it never worked properly. I've tried everything. Since it was an older model I went ahead and both the latest model of the tuner. Still same result. Basically what happens is, when I updated the tuner for my truck and installed it it messes up my truck. It wi run fine but if I get into the higher RPMS like around 3-4000 at about too speed my truck will rev up and down repeatedly from 3-4000 rpm and just continues. The truck seems to even be slower in first gear. Any idea how to fix this? I've tried reinstalling updates but nothing. The tuner didn't work on my old 3.0 motor that got blow, and it does the same thing to my new motor as well. Exact same results.

Any problems before the tune. Sounds like it needs a tune up

No problems before tune. And I've tried all the tunes and they do the same thing. And yes auto tranny

my auto tuned just fine. Runs through the Rpms without any issue. It seems like it's misfiring imo. Probably something wrong that the tune uncovers

nothing would be wrong. It just got a different motor put in and it's still doing the exact same thing.

Did you customize the tranny shifting in the tune or not.

Try changing the shift points and firm the shifts up
