Slipping trans

I installed the BD enhancer and was blown away for the first 500 miles then the computer learned the kit and went back to the way it was before.
I am looking for a new upgrade now to stop the slipping.

I am stacked with Super Chip 150hp and the Edge w/attitiude, 4" exhaust, afe intake and Fassfuel 150gph pump.
Could run 14.80 sec. 1/4 mile at 4000 feet.
But not anymore with the trans the way it is now !!
Any body have any sugestions?

yes sir...

Sounds to me like it is time for you to upgrade your torque converter at the very least, and you may want to consider doing a full tranny upgrade...

If you have already slipped the clutches then you are gonna have to save up for a rebuild kit. Once the clutches are glazed then it gets easier every time it slips. I would save up for a Suncoast stage III or IV and turn down the power in the mean time.

What year truck do you have? How do you know the trans is slipping? Has the truck gone into limp mode yet? Im gonna have to agree with everyone else. Save up the money and get the trans rebuilt. Then you'll be able to throw all the power at it you want!!
