Shifting Flare

I can't say that noticed it when I first put the chip in the truck, but that doesn't mean it wasn't there. I did a 1000 plus mile trip that had almost no stop and go. When I got home from that trip and I started driving my normal routes I noticed the flare. On my typical drive home from town I stop at an intersection and then immediately begin climbing a two mile long hill, and that is the first place I noticed it. It is most noticeable when using more than moderate throttle through 50 mph which is not something I do very much outside of acclerating up that hill.
Do you recommend that I pull the chip and run around on stock to see if the flare stops? If it does would it be tuning related?

Pull it and try.

I pulled the chip and haven't noticed any shifting flare during several trips to and from town. I am going to put the chip back in to see if I have flare in the tow settings so then I know which tunes are truly the culprit. Once I identify all the trouble tunes is it just a matter of shipping the chip back to PHP for tuning adjustments?

Well it could just be that the transmission is starting to slip with the added power. Not so much that the chip is causing it as in it's got bad tuning but that being the chip increases the power it's now showing a mechanical weak link in that the clutches are starting to slip. Might be something the tranny shop that rebuilt it needs to take a look at.
