06 GT E-Force Stumbling Issues
I will try to make this short.
I have two issues with my Edelbrock supercharged 06 GT:
1. I can't downshift to 3rd gear (AT ALL) at any speed higher than ~40mph. When I attempt to, ALL power shuts down, RPMs drop to nothing and the only thing I can do is shift back to 4th. And yes, the traction control is off. I am well aware of the high speed lockout issues, but this seems different. It goes into gear, it just dies...
2. I had a 2000 Civic SI that did this and I never found the issue before I sold it. After a cold or relatively cold start, in 1-4th gears, the car starts 'putting out' on acceleration. Its not like when the RPMs rise with a toasted clutch, but it just wont take any gas at all and you can hear the mufflers putting out and I have to ease on and off the gas until I get up to a high enough RPM and it stops. Its like something is not 'catching'. Hard to explain, but Im hoping someone has experience with this issue.
Thanks

Yes, I have scanned, no codes.
This car is a garage queen. In Michigan. Which means it rarely sees the road lol, and I drive like a grandma (just giving backstory). I had everything installed 2 years ago and I actually noticed it on the way home when I went to downshift to 3rd to pass a truck and the RPMs just dropped off to nothing. Its happened every time I have tried to do so, which in 2 years is only 5-10 times. I have contacted the tuner (very reputable) multiple times, but I haven't received a response...
