Conflict between Jake brake and Tranny???
 
Hey Gent's,

Been lurking on this site for months now and been enjoying you're knowledge and humour, so, I'm finally jumping in.[roll]
I've been making some mods based on what I've learned from you guys.
I started with a Jake brake installed by Dodge-Sweet!
I then went to a cat back and Ram air system from Banks.
Then I got the Quad xzt.
And here is where I need ya, I installed a BD valve body and torque converter.
The day I picked up the truck from the tranny guy I noticed the Jake brake wasn't up to snuff.
It wasn't as loud as it used to be and the braking horse power was cut down by a third.

I took it to Dodge and they say there is nothing wrong with it.
Could ther be a problem because of the valve body and BD torque converter?
Is the stock ECM having trouble with the new shift points and Jake brake?

What Da ya think?
