Headers and shifting 8 speed

[JJK]

So I have headers on my 2014 Laramie 5.7 8 speed. When it shifts from 1st 2nd 3rd it's like if falls into gear or like i'm pushing in a clutch. Very boggy driving under normal load will be in 4th gear before I get to 25 mph will not down shift out of 4th at times. Like going around a corner start to accelerate boggy as hell still in 4th. Stupid...... So I take it to the dealer they did a relearn on it. Said all perimeters were all set correctly. Nothing changed on it. Still falls in to gear and will not down shift. Take it back! Service manger tells me to take the headers and throttle body off. Put the stock ones back on drive it if nothing changes. We will look at it again. What the hell dose headers have to do with shifting? If anyone can answer that I would like to hear it! He told me the PCM looks at everything.
7000 miles on the truck! I have had nothing but issues with this truck. Lemon comes to mind. The list goes on and on! It's at the dealership getting **** fixed more than i'm driving it. Called today fog light is loose passenger side. Cluck driver-side going over bumps. Overhead light flickers than don't work than works
Pass and go button don't lock than works. They can't figure it out. Front end is cupping the tires. Cold start clatter at times. List goes on!!! I have sent emails to Ram corporate. Have not heard a word. $51,000 dollar truck with 7,000 miles on it. Really Ram

Sounds like a hemifever tune problem to me

I wouldn't really blame Ram on this one, you modded the truck. Make a log and either sent it to HF or JG.

It shifts the same way with the stock file in it. I drove it for two weeks with the stock file in it. Nothing changed as far as the shifting goes. So the only one i'm pointing a finger at is Ram!!! Headers don't have anything to do with it shifting. Or dose it that's my question? Not trying to start a ******* match here!! Geez guy's so quick to point a finger.....

I drove it two weeks with the stock file. F@3kin% slow learner? I thought humans were the only slow learners. hahaha From what i recall there wasn't no tuning for the 8 speed per Diablo

How does it behave over 4000rpm, if you can get it there? I ask because my brother's dealership has had 2 trucks come in with faulty SRV manifolds that are stuck open so the bottom-end torque is absolutely shot but it will perform normally over 4000rpm.

All I have to offer is that you have a cool dealer if they're still working with you with all your mods..
