New tune on 8.1 suburban

Post by Moncowkeymoo »

I just got the tuner for my 2003 suburban 8.1l and installed the 91 tune.
Now my question is the Transmission shifts hard into 2nd and 3rd and in reverse the idle surges.
I was going to install the 87 tune and see how it does.
Is the hard shifting normal or should I return it to stock and try to install the tune again

How do I turn the Transmission to factory but leave the tune alone? Truck runs great but shifts very hard.
