The lag in gears sounds like the tuner needs to work on the trans tune. My car is a 7AT with a Stillen supercharger and it responds very quick. I had lots of cooling problems because of the coolers being stacked, is your oil cooler right in front of your radiator?

This. Your tuner sucks. 310 whp? Find a new guy. The one you have is incompetent. Fix the fan settings and the trans line pressure, replace the radiator. Run straight water and water wetter. With a good tune and the cooling addressed, your problems will go away.

Guess I missed a post where he only made 310whp. Definitely a shitty tuner. **** I made 310whp NA.
