Default Transmission slippage vs pressure evaluation

I ran two tests using my HP Tuner with stock transmission pressure and an increase of 3% on the second test.

Notice on the 1-2 shift in the charts below how quickly the rpm drops verses the 2-3. Looks like a lot of slippage on the 2-3. Stock pressure for the 1-2 is greter than the 2-3. The last group was with the pressure 3% higher across the board. The rpm drops quicker indicating less slippage.

I'm not sure how much slippage is acceptable but I like the last chart better. If I'm counting right the 3% pressure increase reduced the slippage two frames verses stock pressure. 4 frames verses 6 when you start counting on gear 3 shift. Note in red.

(TP is throttle position)

I prefer to use the Table display, delete a few things and add 'time of latest 1-2 shift'
and 'time of latest 2-3 shift'
It will give you the time it took to complete the shift. IMO it should not be more than your 'desired shift time' for that shift.
If it is, first I'd lower the desired shift time, if that doesn't help I'd mess with the upshift pressure modifiers.

Good point! Looks like I need another log.
