If someone's messing with any of the torque tables, this can have an effect on this kind of behavior. If you tell the car to "make" too much torque, it's going to try. If you don't tell it to "make" the proper amount, you'll get throttle and spark issues. Finding a balance, from the software we have available to us, is key, and calibrating air flow is the most important place to start. Once air flow is calibrated, the ECM knows what TQ it's producing, and a lot of the rest can start falling into place.

That's the thing. The Driver Demand tables are stock currently and the cam is all stock. The only change is a 5% supercharger pulley and an ATI super damper to run the engine accessories. Timing tables have not been modded on the low end but it is notable that torque management is causing the timing to spike coming to a stop, but it's only in manual mode while in first gear though. If I throw it in automatic and come to a stop without using the shifter or paddle shifters at all I won't feel the runaway feeling from the engine because the transmission is still in second gear by the time I reach the stop.
I've managed to confine the issue to a singular very specific scenario event but I can always replicate it. It's not a sometimes thing, it's an all the time thing if I'm in paddle shift manual mode and coasting down in first gear.
