Is a tune on a stock car a waste of money?

Which device did you have and what vehicle?
Never, not once, have I seen or heard of any of our tools causing any trans issues, so I would like to investigate.
Thanks

And issue with my car was,, at low speed ( out of first) and stomp on it , and it go's into lower gear,, the car will rev soooooo high that when it try's to shift up, it SLIDE OUT OF GEAR way to slow..., its so slow that i actually have to let off gas.. As its that bad, and i wasnt about to smoke my automatic .

Hmm, between posts #13 and #14 in that thread, you mentioned adding a CAI after you had initially said the tune felt great....
Adding a CAI can cause the MAF curve to be way out of whack, which directly affects load, which affects shifting in the T43 TCM quite a bit. I would be confident saying it would be fine if you went back to the stock intake or had a custom tune made for that CAI setup.

Don't worry, I got you....
But, i didnt state at that time , i HAD not jumped into it too hard after cann tune.. Only after air filter. Which isnt really a cai, its was just a better than stock air filter..( air raid )

If your trans is in good condition, you'll really like what we do.
I've included a little sumpthin' in the engine cal that should firm up the trans even before we tune the trans.
Get back to us here with your first impression when the ecm gets to you.
Stay (Chuck CoW) TUNED!

New Vette guy here, but
- what is a dyno and a tune?
- should I do it on my stock 02 C5 (auto)?
It has 113,xxx miles on it. Or do I wait until I get my new new exhaust system?
