Retune for new Gears and torque converter and ET STREETS
Well i finally got my 3:73 gears and 3600 Stall converter installed. I drove it home today and it felt pretty good. I did a test run before i got home and it bounced it off the rev limiter in second and third. I will reprogram for the gears tonight with my Diablo. Is anybody familiar with this setup? What should i set my shift points at RPM/MPH and Rev limiter? I have stock internals still so i know i can't rev it too high. I'm going to the track on Friday with my new setup and hope i can hook up my MT ET Streets.

I'm sure someone has had to tune for this setup! I will play around with it on Friday night at the track in time trials i guess. I just wanted to get close before i went out there. I also need to retune for my Drag tires also MT ET STREET 26X11.5X15 and the 3:73 gears. Do i need to compensate for the torque converter also with the RPM shift points?

Thanks, yes the Diablo sport allows you to tune the MPH and RPM shift points. I read that most people zero out the MPH and just use the RPM to shift with. I will try this Friday night. I think i have my Rev LImiter set at 6300, and the sift point at 6200.

Well i ran Friday night. My first and only time trial due to rain i ran a 8.3 first launching too high around 3000 and hitting the rev limiter. I lowered the shift points to 6100 and launched around 2000 and ran a best 8.1 with a 1.75 60ft time.
