What us old timers used to call passing gear. Just the tranny downshifting when you floor it.

Need more info on what rear end gears the car has and what speed you are going when you are flooring it. There are tables in the pcm that control when it will command a downshift based on mph.

Hypertechs will only let you change upshift points, not downshift points. You will need tuning software to change those.

hmm at 30mph you probably mean it won't downshift to first. 2nd tops out up to 90 depending on your gear ratio. on a 3.23 car it'll usually downshift to 2nd up to 68mph.
