You might give it a day or two to learn what's going on with the extra power

That is the tranny learning. Do some city driving where it can shift threw all of the gears easy before getting on it harder. Start out taking off easy and when it shifts good like that step it up a little.

Some say that level 4 and up might be too much for a stock tranny (most likely true), but I also am running on this level for sometime now w/ no tranny mods. So far so good, but I try to avoid boosted launch. Give your tranny sometime to relearn and put it on fast learn mode. When I'm relearning my tranny I drive aggresively and try to run it at different types of roads.

also your truck has a defueling feature so that could be part of what your feeling.

yes it there to protect your tranny,what it does is it cuts engine power so an unmodified tranny can shift without destroying it and then after the shift the power returns,the longer you drive it the less noticable it will be.

That is to force a regen cycle. If you feel you DPF is clogging you can force a regen istead of waiting on the truck to do it.
