Looks like jay Greene and hemifever are offering these services but haven't heard much about them on the forum. Has anyone done them yet?

I have a Diablo trans tune through Jay. HP has more control of the trans but is expensive just for a tune. I got a trans tune from Jay for $75. You just cant beat that. It raised the shift points to 6100-6200, I havent hit limp mode, made the trans shift a little firmer & faster and made it hold the part throttle gears longer. For 75 bucks I'm tickled to death w/ it. I was 1 of the 1st that Jay tuned via Diablo. I have about 1500 miles on it so far w/ the tune & all is well

Could you tell me more about limp mode. What would cause it with trans tune ?

A trans tune wont cause limp mode. That happens WITH OUT the trans tune if your spinning bad and the truck bounces off the rev limiter. The stock trans tune has a 6400 rev limit in it to protect the trans so even if the motor rev limit bumped up w/o a trans tune if your spinning bad the tcm will shut the truck down. It only happened to me once last yr before I figured out to peddle it if its spinning to avoid it.

Are hemifevers trans tune available yet?

Got confirmation from Sean they are now. He did state it can be a bit tedious on my end to get everything to load correctly. Not sure what is meant by that

I'm loving it!

The truck shift great! Luckily it's not a neck snapper, but it's much firmer and not just at WOT.

Nice hoping to do this eventually. But on a 17 might wait a bit to work out any warranty stuff first

Haha no booms you are good bro. I got a pm and someone didn't want to post what tuner they were using so they wouldn't start the great jay vs hf debate. Which I understand since searching brought up a ton of it

The biggest question ppl should be askin is when can the diablo trinity t1000 users get tunes....I would like to install as well....customers who bought the higher $$$ and sophisticated tuners have to wait.... just seems a$$ backwards.
