Default Tuning for better shifts with predator?

I'm running the stock predator tune right now, however....I was interested in adjusting some of the shifting parameters to get quicker and firmer shifts. My transmission and rear are stock, so I don't want to do anything too crazy.

I was thinking about:
quickening all of the shift by 10%
firming up part throttle 1-2, 2-3 shifts by 10%
firming up WOT 1-2, 2-3 shifts by 5%

I also planned on leaving the torque management on.

Am I on the right track? I'd be interested to hear what others have done and what their results were.

Thanks!

Wow....that's not good at all.

What kinds of adjustments did you make? I'm not looking to change the shift points, just quicken them.

Do you remember how much you adjusted the settings?
