fuel pressure should be more around 60 to 65psi, you got the BLUE SPRING upgrade? after a rebuild like that you really shouldn't be tuning it up or jumping on it for about 500 miles or so. You have to let the gaskets seat and let everything normalise for several heat cycles if you want to have it last for a while. Even though the SCT might have trans tuning you will have to let the tans relearn the pressures for normal driving, it can take a while, maybe 100 miles or so for this to happen, anytime the batteries are disconnected this will happen. It will be searching for gears, revving higher befoe shifts, bucking, till it relearns.
