Should have worded that differently. My reasoning for the question is that when I've got it pegged, while driving, it will hit 6k and sort of pauses, and then shifts. Won't bounce like others that i;ve heard. Like it stalls out at 6k and i have to let off the throttle for it to catch the next gear. I don't want to just bounce it off just for the hell of it.
Then I guess my first question is, what do you mean by bounce?
And the pause - again, any tuner worth his salt should know about torque management, and how to adjust it via tuning the ECM/PCM. GMT900 trucks have pretty heavy-handed torque management - GM did it both for smoothness, but also for component longevity. The downside is slow/sloppy shifting and poor throttle response.
I had Blackbear reduce torque management on my Suburban by about 50%. Even though it's giving 1000 lbs and 50 hp to my Denali, the Denali simply cannot run away from the Burb. And, of course, since I had the speed governor removed as part of the Suburban tune, the Burb will blast past the Denali on its way to 120+ while the Denali stalls at 99.
