dom, i know i have to be bugging the absolute crap outa ya, but i just want to get this one thing straight. going from 3.08 to 3.42, the shifts are going to be 10% sooner, or 10% later (meaning a lot more redline)??? thx a lot and i SWEAR I'LL STOP BUGGING YOU AFTER THIS ONE--well, as long as ya give me an answer i can understand!!! :rolleyes:
btw...does the revlimiter fix this problem...or what?
Shifts don't follow the percentage rules that speedo follows. Don't ask me why. My 4.10s with 3.42 programming shifts around 5600 on 1-2. It "should" be way lower. I'm guessing 3.42s with 3.08s programming will be around 5800. I even hit the rev limiter sometimes when I downshift and upshift again.
My WOT throttle shifts are around 5800-5900. During normal driving, my car shifts a little faster, but basically in the same places. I'm not sure. Not that much of a difference in shift points during normal driving, just a lot faster. I want to say that the regular driving shifts are based on mph, because I'm in 4th or have achieved torque converter lockup alot earlier than I used to.
You still haven't put those gears in? Put 'em in! :D
You're not originally from Texas, huh? You think alot. :D
