Can't cry about it now I will just move on and get a custom tune. Made a few calls yesterday to some LA shops, it will be done soon. One purpose was to see what speed tune was saying was true. Looks like I found my answer out and I am dealing with them now.

Klinh read my 1st post for the purpose of the thread and Don't NO NO NO me Only my wife does that 
ha ha
I have been in touch with OE tuning already and it will happen there. Yes custom tune is the way to go.
I proved to myself and hopefully others that Off the shelve is not the way to go. I see company's always advertise something and hear others asking if its true hopefully it proved some sort of point that will help others.
The pulley is up next more than likely. They claim gains lets see how much. Lets just say I am takeing one for the team
I am not mad at all really more things to worry about then this and everything is fixable.
Klinh BTW lets have Lunch if you are close to OE tuning I wil be there next month. I will buy..
Peace

I poke fun at myself too mate, glad you found the humor in it
Looking forward to the new numbers from the custom tune, that 550 is a beast.

-put it into "dyno mode"
-Selected "M" for manual mode and drove the car on the rollers.
I can switch gears initially with the paddles and get to 4th gear but then it would continue to shift up, to 5/6/7 by itself.
If I press the pedal quickly it would seem to hold 4th for longer but it would still upshift at some random rpm. It even shifted to 5th after I stabbed the throttle at ~2000rpm to try to start the pull.
Spoke to Deon (sp?) at Renntech and he said that is not normal.

No I did not. Ended up getting refund from Speedtune and then after talking to Cory went a Kleemann tune when it was on sale, and i am very happy with it. My car goes out of warranty at the end of the year and going to some major stuff then I will get a custom tune.

Have not had the time really, every time I pass the dyno place I been meaning to set a appointment up. Between the car and my RC Airplane hobbie and Poker and work just have not had the time. You could call Corey I bet he would give you the discount price.
