09 ram 1500 hemi WOT shift issue with trinity.

Post by adidas_kn »

Can we please get in on some of this TQ Management reduction/removal please? It's even worse now that I have my 4.56's installed and WOT shifts set at 5900rpm with a 6200 rev limiter. It shifts like a amateur on a manual transmission. It literally nose dives(pauses) under a WOT 1-2 and 2-3 shift and that is eating valuable time in a 1/4 mile. Not to mention the horrible noise it makes when it throttles back(TM) at 5900rpm at WOT. It makes a loud gurgle or something like that when it WOT shifts and causes a code P1004 to be thrown(Short Runner Valve). I'm guessing this is because of the sudden upset in manifold pressure. I need this TQ Management gone.
Make it an option like Superchips does. I'm willing to pay an extra $30-$40 for some more TM control and up and down shift control. I would def like to be able to tell my truck to go lower then 4th gear when accelerating from around a 10mph corner. I have to manually kick it down to 2nd or 3rd. Please help guys. I really, really don't want to go to a superchips for something like this. I love my Trinity and will be using it for a WB02 gauge soon for some fine tuning.

The stock canned tune or the modified tune for my 4.56's? Do I need to return my tune to the stock tune to be able to download the performance tune to my computer?

Here's the Last tune written(87octane performance tune)(68039319AH_custom.drg). I'd like to get one for the 93 octane performance tune also. Thats what I run at the track and once every month or so.

Oh and I don't know if anything needs to be adjusted for my newly installed 180 t-stat. Also I have the Trinity T-1000.

How do you like that 180 t-stat? I found my truck runs best on the bottom at about 160*. So its probably still in closed loop I think it is. Even at 180 its not bad, but at 200 its brutal.

I have the 180* stat in my 09 and going down the highway it runs alot cooler and at the truck pulls I go to it helps keep the truck cool until I pull, but after a run it still warms up to around 200. I would recommend it, also I noticed no difference on gas mileage.

I like the 180 T-stat but texas has its way of heating everything up. I've seen coolant temps up to 192F and oil temps up to 201F on hot afternoons in stop and go traffic.

Jesse 01, Man you really need to move up to some 4.56's. They completely change the truck. Best mod to date. Hell I'd even consider goin lower if I had 37" tires but I don't I have 32" Nitto NT420's.

4.56 is as low as you can go in the front. I'm switching to 35's soon for this winter. 4.56 and 35's should be close or lower than stock. What size tire are you running?

32" Nitto performance tires. I've lowered my truck 4" front and 6" rear. I use it for a DD and weekend racing.

Kinda hoping to hit the track this weekend. Any update on this? I found it shifts harder and without this issue if manually shifted with the ERS(autostick) before the 5900 rpm shift limit. I still would like to have a largly reduced or removed TM tune to try out. I will keep my current tunes backed up on my computer just incase.

Mike,

Any updates on this issue? Kinda excited to see what a tune with the TM reduced to almost nothing (1-2%) or completely removed will do to the trucks shifting and power output.

Here's the Last written 93 octane tune. This tune is awesome! I went from a 6.01sec 0-60mph(with the 87 tune) to a 5.53sec 0-60mph run, It's still having the shifting issue even though I dropped the WOT shift to 5850rpm. Please help me out with this TM issue in my current tunes. I switch back and forth beween the 87 and 93 tunes every few weeks so I'll need both tunes modified.
