Keep the A4 in whatever gear it was in so it wouldn't downshift? Say you are doing 40, and you just want to get to 60 - not at a snail's pace, but not like a rocket; say 60% throttle. The computer unlocks the TC, at about 10% throttle, but at about 30% it downshifts one gear and at 50% it goes down two gears, a few jerks, a second of shifting, and then you go.

That LS1 can lug at WOT, and so why can't I get this with an AT - say stay in third an whatever throttle position? Also sometimes I DON'T want a neck snapping jerk, even though I am asking for 80% throttle. Surely the tranny and TC can take the low end torque??????

Would seem to be an easy mod - being the tranny is electrically controlled. It seems that there in no logic to "when" it will kick down - maybe even a kickdown delay circuit - need to find what the downshift inputs are specificaly to the ECM - Hey Delco folks, any ideas ?

You need a Tranny Tricker. Call Mike at Yank Converters.

Sounds like a simple thing made complicated:
Know how far to push the throttle down to achieve desired results....as you said, no lack of torque here.

The question is do you know what you want on a consistent basis? The TCC and shift tables key off of MPH and TPS. With Edit you can change that stuff to suit your taste.
