Default SCT X-Calibrator Question

Alright I just received my X-CAL 1 in the mail today. I installed the tune and started it up, no problems at all. Idles at like 800 RPM, which is perfect. But when I'm shifting inbetween gears the RPM's have a hard time dropping, like when you let off the gas the RPM's float where their at for a second and then SLOWLY drop down. Same thing when it's revved. What could the problem be? It's almost like the throttle is sticking but it's defiantly not sticking. Is there anything I can do tweak it on the PC to change that problem?

with 2 step it locks the rpms once u get there allowing you to launch better. Perhaps its locking at high rpms.

It takes a little while for the computer to learn the new tune. Just drive it for a couple of days.

Has anyone else had the same problem with their RPM's after their tune?
