I think you can still drive it for now but it will be hitting limp mode when u stomp on the throttle upon takeoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 23/09/10 09:06 AM Share Posted 23/09/10 09:06 AM if you dont retune it ASAP you will fry your box under heavy load! Put it around till you retune it else you will be rebuilding it again!Make sure your tuner knows what 'shift pressures' and 'torque reduction' is else go to another tuner!
