this just started happening today... i might be getting too much torque for it to handle.. i have my mbc connected too and it set pretty high. i saw 22psi in 5th so i might want to turn it down a little

Try turning it down and see what happens. The stock tip is not an iron clad tranny.

hmm yes i think ive seen something like this before... your car may have ATD (automatic transmission desease) the easiest symptom to spot is the lack of a pedal on the floor. chack and see if theres 3 pedals... if not thats you problem right there

ok sorry i know im not being helpful

Ok I think I got a honda motor.. My car drives fine till about 4.5k then it bogs down to about 3.7 then it goes wide open to red line still clanks. But it's not as hard.... And my laptop doesn't like to reconize my obd2 cable
