Default Hitting Rev Limiter after Filter Cleaning!

Cleaned/oiled my Haltech Trap filter (15-20K miles on it) today. Took it out for a spin.......and I am now hitting the rev limiter before 1st-2nd shift. This never has happened before.

I have a recent dyno tune at A&A....and shift points were perfect. Looks like we should have cleaned the filter before the tune. I'm sure this is going to make ANDY real happy

I am going to see if it settles in with PCM normal relearn for a few miles first. But I am off to my first DRAGS (thats why I cleaned the filter) on 12/4.......and need to auto shift without hitting the limiter



PS.....thanks RUSS, you are the man!

...an old favorite - Test Drive 5! That shot was taken in Italy - very slippery roads, even with traction control!

Default Hitting rev limiter...

Well, we all know that a car is faster after it's washed and waxed...I'm sure it must also be faster after the air filter is washed!
