How much tranny slippage do you see on ATTITUDE?

I was fiddling around with my edge monitor and noticed the tranny slip% parameter. Its always NA when i drive slow and then on highway its 0% when i floor my truck it goes to like 10% or so and just applying some foot pedal gradually will make it spike to 1-3%. i guess this is the nature of the dodge tranny?

im running a edge juice hot unlock, with stock tranny

Better start saving your pennies. I see a built tranny in your future.

By the way, it reads N/A (not applicable) when the TC is not locked, then when the TC is locked it shows you the slippage percentage.

I wouldn't if you paid me to try... The allison isn't as strong as you think...

I dont think that thing works. I have 6-7% slip all the time even under very light throttle. Most of the time in my records it says 5018% slip I even have a manual with a ceramic clutch

My J/A would show slip up to 50%. I could actually feel the T/C slip when under throttle. Now that I have all the Goerends goodies I couldn't make it slip if I had to.

If you have the money do the input!! The new T/C will put more stress on the input and the new flex plate will make the stock input the weak link. So yes do the input before the flex plate
