    torque management

    i got my truck tuned by a local guy here in houston..when he tuned my truck he didnt ask me anything about the TQ-management..Some people tell me that when they take off the torque management the trucks burn the tires from a dead stop easier..and if this is the case he didnt take off some the torque management cause its slow off the line...by yall experience what do yall think...should i get it tuned by another tuner..

    How does it run other than that? What gears are you running? I see you have 3.73's in your upcoming mods but if you are currently running 3.23's, you probably won't be able to spin them from a dead stop no matter how much TM is removed.

    Depends on what you have worked out with the person who tuned your truck. If you get free re-tunes, then see what he can do to tweak it. If not or if you didn't spend a lot of money, make a quick trip to San Antonio to Nelson.

    Well other then that it does pull better then before. It does now rev up to 6k and spins the tires when it shifts to second and sometimes I can feel the back wheels hoping and before I was tuned it didn't used to do that.. I have 3.43s or something like that..

    3.42's are tough to spin off the line without some "assistance". I would call him and ask what adjustments he made to the TM. If retunes are free, let him do some more tweaking.

    If he asked you what mods you have done to the transmission he may have taken some or all out depending on mods.
