Hi so I currently runing JB4 map 5 Race fuel I happen to do a 40 pull of an on ramp, got up to 7th gear WOT about 90-100 pulling smooth. As soon as I let off the gas pedal jb4 kick me down to gear 4 is that normal. Just throws me off as I have to up shift again to level out RPM.
 
JB4 doesn't control the TCU or transmission, only boost, fuel, and EWG if you have the cables.
 
No I do not have the EWG cables what’s exactly are this for? But then again could that be a safety feature of JB4 kicking me down gears, you haven’t had any similar situation?

You can read about the EWG wires here:
 
The JB has no control over the transmission. I think you have something else going on. You can floor it and get well over 130 mph in 6th gear before the transmission changes to 7th. 90-100 you would be in 4th gear, not 7th. I attached a screen shot of a log I did this morning. At 131 mph, I was in 6th gear and only 5192 RPM. I'm not sure what's going on but I think you're in a different gear than you are. My 4th gear went from 88mph to 100mph before going to 5th and I paddle shifted early.gear.webp
