Default Shift Points TCI 3500.

I have a TA with 3.23 gears. I just installed a TCI 3500 with shift kit. I am using a predator right now to adjust shift points. Does anyone have any ideas on the shift points(MPH, RPM) and shift time with this stall and gears. Thanks

YEP. My SSF 3500 caused me to adjust shift points. Was clipping the rev limiter on shifts.

It really wakes up the car a lot. At first it took a day or so to get use to. With the sock tune the shift points were not right. It also felt like the TM was pulling timing between shifts. WIth the predator tune TM was better but still there. I finally found an open road to run it on. To keep it from hitting the rev limit on the 2>3 or the 3>2 downshift I lowered the MPH shift point to around 75mph. That solved the problem. My setting that worked for me

Shift time:-15 1>2
-25 2>3
-25 3>4
Shift Points:MPH 1>2 42MPH
2>3 75mph
3>4 125 mph
RPM 6000
Shift Pressure 0 since I have a shift kit installed
Rev Limit: 6190
