You're doing it wrong

It's your thread so it can't be wrong. If you're able to get by without debt, then your job is as good as it gets: actually enjoying it is a bennie. Keep looking. Pray. And may your fortune change. My life changed when we paid off our house. I could go part-time, flex-time, and the next nine years were almost like paradise compared to the previous two decades of full-time slog.

the OP's question is...



and about 1 person responded.

Yeah. Though the technical answers were phenomenal, they didn't answer the question. Myself and the OP were not referring to engine breaking. I was referring to simply letting off the gas after a hard acceleration and the car immediately pitches forward as if you hit the breaks. Almost like a really bad manual transmission driver between gears. So aggressive that my wife feels like shes getting whip lash.

Good comment, but what's the question?

Is it normal to lunge forward when letting off the gas? The car didn't do that before the tune.

In 1st gear at near redline?
Or in 8th gear at 2500 rpm?

If you slap the throttle closed while accelerating, there will be some immediate deceleration, and that deceleration is multiplied by the torque multiplier of the gear you currently have selected.
