Default Problem with tune?

Alright, I have a 2006 mustang GT and am having a problemwith bama race tune. The car drives fine under normal conditions with the tune. The car also is fine under WOT with stock diablo tune, but with the bama race tune when I go WOT while driving the car hits the rev limiter and will not shift. Any Ideas? Could it be my transmission, or is it the tune?

Check if the rev limiter is set too low in the tune.

By "not shifting" do you mean it does not shift at all? Or does it hit the rev limiter for a split second?

Because mine does hit the rev limiter when I go WOT.

The Bama tune shifts at 5900 rpms. Make sure your rev limiter is set higher than that.

The car will not shift at all. I am currently in contact with doug trying to resolve the issue.
