WOW , well i picked up my truck and the tranny is sopposably "fixed" ,well drove it and my truck is not boosting 10psi at all and feels like theres horrible lag and only pushes 5psi-6, went right back and he said he thought it felt slugish , i said "yes because it is , what did yall do to it"? he says nothing just the transmission , i checked all my vaccum lines,turbo and intercooler piping and all, still not running ANYWHERE near or close to the way it did, i then called him and asked if he flashed or messed with my computer and he says no we did not and we dont even have the equipment to flash a computer, whats going on here? is it possible he messed with my computer or erased my tune from nelson performance??

Oh wow, I would be raising some serious hell after that. Are there any exhaust leeks? Maybe they didnt put it back together correctly if they had to take the exhaust off to pull the trans.

I was gonna say exhaust leak, if it's noticeable, it might cause an issue, also it would have to be a big one, but check the intake tubes as well.

well im gonna re do my y-pipe, sounds like a pretty bad leak from the header to y-pipe bolt conectors, plus theres only 1 of 3 bolts on each side that are tight. got worse this morning on the way to work. gonna let it cool down and do it myself ......considering it should have been done correctly from the shop that did the job. already checked ALL my intake pipes from turbo to intake, all good.

SOOOOOOO i got under my truck to fix the leak and what it saw was horrible work. turns out they bent my manifold studs where it connects to the Y-pipe flange, stripped all 3 studs,grinded one for some reason, broke one ,and added 7 washers to the only one that would hold any sort of tight ,if you call that tight.
called him up completly discusted with his work and told him i am not driving back out there for the 5th time, it takes me 1 hr without traffic to get there. He agreed to let me take it to a local muffler shop and have them fix and replace the studs and he will reimburse me .
NOW , that i figured out why my truck was not boosting correctly due to no constent exhuast flow to spin my turbo,makes me wonder if that 1 1/2 hr drive i did yesterday when i picked it up and drove home freid my turbo! i noticed a few drops of oil sitting on the bottom of the compressor side of the turbo and i know it was not like that. honestly i own my own buisness and do not believe in bad talking other companys BUT this is just the most unprofessional so called "transmission shop" ive ever givin my buisness to.
Gteran- how did your "experience" go today with your truck ?
