Ahhhhh - and auto tranny shift. Thats a different ball game. I'm not sure what would cause that but I'd definitely take a tech out in it and show them.

Mine has also pulled this, and it is a stick, It will do it with TCS on or off, how do I know, because it did it, and I said ****, left the TCS on, turned it off, drove a few more miles and it did it again.
I can almost repeat it every time by going 80 and dropping to third as I hit it, It has a moment of indecision, then takes off. I have posted about this before, but get no where, everyone thinks its the TCS. It isn't. It isn't the rev limiter either. the last ime I was turning a corner and it did it.

I've talked to a couple of shops and they all agree that it is because of the electronic throttle. When you go to powershift it will simply shut down. A simple tune will fix this problem.

I guess its possible that the Saleen Power Flash tune takes care of this, because with TCS off I have no hints of power loss or indecision - so its possible SHIFTY is correct here.

Thanks, then. Ill have it looked at anyways, though. If they find nothing wrong with it I'll let you know if it is fixed by a chip tune (Ah... If only I had alot of cash right now.)

These cars have what I believe is called "Drive by Wire" technology. When you push in on the clutch, the car is protecting its self from an "over reving" situation by shutting the throttle plates. Both the SCT and the Diablo will fix this problem.
