Default WOT 1st to 2nd ?

I installed a Diablo Predator a few weeks ago and have been happy with the performance.

I've recently noticed when WOT going from 1st to 2nd gear I get a "clack"

Any ideas ? Anyone experience something like it ? I took the tune off and tried it with the original tune and all TM and still get it, but softer.

No, I never have any issues with mine. Did you raise the WOT shift point? I set mine to 5800rpm instead of the 5600rpm stock setting. No noise though.

No I have not altered the shift points any higher than stock. Honestly I have been mainly testing the tune for fuel mileage gains, but have felt the boost in power, shift firmness etc.

I'm stumped and a bit nervous.

if it does it stock, then I would would maybe let the dealer test drive it in stock tune. If they say don't worry about it then reinstall the tune and don't worry about it.

lxman1, that's probably what I'll do.

I forget does the Predator leave a trace ?
