Default Woes me..... woes me...

Here is my situation...
Dealership takes my car for replacing transmission
Car was at body shop only days before Dealership takes my car...
I picked up my car last Thursday.
Notice on my front bumper... which was just painted... its scratched up like someone backed into it while it was at the dealership..
Dealership doesnt believe me... ok fine whatever...
installed new tranny... took a nice trip to break in the tranny... tranny isn't running right... and bucking when in reverse... fluids are fine from what the dealership says..
car still drives slow...
found out not to long ago... they flashed the hell out of my chips.... GIAC + Tip Chip...
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!
Car feels like stock... not good.. oh boy....
What to do? What to do?

I've worried about that myself. Won't Garrett redo the chip for you? Have you called them?

Thought the Giac's(engine chips) were protected from flash by encryption...

Flashing is a process whereby the code is reset to stock. Also involves public nudity.
