Well Today I Purchased A Predator, For My Truck, And I Installed The 85hp Tune, And The Tranny Feels Like It Loses Power Between Shifts, One Of My Friends Said Something Aboutr A Learn Mode Whats Up.

Huh thats strange. It could be two things. It could be the truck isnt use to the programmer and the extra power so its not shifting at the correct time and speed causeing the problem.
The other thing it could be is the programmer has a defueling feature where it shuts off the fuel between shifts so the truck doesnt hurt the trans.
Does your programer have a lower setting? If it does id set it on the lower setting for 1-200 miles and let the truck get use to the extra power. Thats what I did when I loaded my PPE. Did the 45 then 90HP tune.

Hmmm ya Id try it on the 45 tune to see if its any better. Then jump to the 85 tune.
Just becareful. I wouldnt try the 120 tune. If you do chances are you'll smoke the trans

Are your shifts hanging and not happening unless you let off the go pedal? If so, try changing the fuel filter. the truck defuels automatically between shifts so it won't hurt the tranny. It is in the stock fueling maps and most programmers just modify the fueling maps that are there. I don't believe the predator has the option not to defuel....at least mine doesn't. Also, it will take some time for the tranny to relearn the new added power.
