Default TP4400 and shift points

I'm going to install my TP4400 tomorrow and I want to know what to set my shift points at? I have 3.73 gears and 27x10.5x15 hoosier QTP's. I'm guessing, both 1-2 and 2-3 at +2 <img src="images/icons/confused.gif" border="0"> Also, do I need to change my rev limiter? Thanks in advance guys <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Well, my car did great with stock shift points and TP-4400. But that was with 3.23's & 26x10.5 ET Streets. Every car(setup) is a little different, best to get the converter in and go test & tune.

John hit the nail on the head. You can't expect to run the same shift points as someone else. Every car is different, and you have to adjust for YOUR setup. Take it to the track, and adjust your shift points one at a time. Start with your 1-2 shift points, and raise it each pass. Keep doing so until your ET and MPH begins to suffer. Once you have it set, then apply the same procedure to the 2-3 shift point. If you can dyno the car and see where peak HP begins to fall off, that will help to give you a better starting point.
