Default A8 WOT shifts

I had an engine/trans tune for my car reflashed back into the car the other day. Its a great tune and always shifted hard and fast at WOT. Ive only been driving it a day or so but the shifts now feel a little sloppy. Does the trans need timr to relearn the hard fast shifts??

I would think its part of the same tune, they dont have to flash the trans tune in separately do they??
