level 3 evo problem/question

when i run level three the truck runs fine but when i go into custom and i try to change the wot shifts the truck cuts out and the load percentage is like at 57 percent just idleing and its cutting out. when i drive it it acts like its about to die. When i go back to level three canned and then custom menu and change my tire size, gear ratio, speed limiter and leave everything else alone the truck runs awesome. Any ideas to why it idle so ruff when i change the wot on level 3?

Because you have an 03 I'm not sure that this applies but for the 04-08's this would be a good setup for WOT shifts

1-2 5250
2-3 5250
3-4 4800

Rev limit 5700

This sounds a lot like something two other people have reported, and it wasn't the max RPM that was the problem or the WOT shifts, but was associated with trying to change the WOT fuel. Try your custom settings again, but this time leave the WOT fuel alone.

OK, that's a new one on me!

I suggest you get in touch with Edge Tech Support on this, and, let us know what they tell you. They seem very interested in helping with problems, so don't pass up what they have to offer.
