Nope. Did you get a tune for the BTS VB? Mine is a stock VB and works pretty well. I will say that I like some of the shifting over my old TS and in some of my TS shifting was smoother during some throttle settings. In the end, DP smokes the TS, but what you describe is way not right.

Still not right. Call Jody but he may ask if your throttle position sensor is throwing a code or functioning properly. Are you close to anyone with an AE or scanner?

What shop? Do that yourself and then get an alignment. Yeah, I know, since ya can't align yourself, might as well have the shop do it.
As for the throttle pedal assembly, if there is a signal loss at the top end then it will possibly sense throttle letoff and upshift. This needs to be tested as it will cost some $200 to replace. This may not even be the problem though from what I have seen, the DP tune should not cause this.
A quick check is to disable or remove the DP tune and see how it drives. Cost=$0.0.
