I thinking about going the forced induction route guys. What do you think? For under $100 that is some cheap HP.

Cool, glad to see you made it over. There's a few places around that can tune with LT1Edit.

On the way home from meeting him last night i couldnt get the car to bang off the limiter, but like i said, it never really happens on the street. He told me that the gears could be the coulpret because for my car to shift into 3rd from 2nd, i have to be doing a certain mph(cant remeber) AND the car wont shift even when it does reach that mph until it hits 6000 rpms, but with the 3.90s my car reaches the rpm well before it reaches the mph so thier is a delay between mph and rpm where the car bangs on the 2-3 shift. what he did yesterday was set the mph to 0 so thier is no set mph to shift at and then he dropped my rpm shift point from 6000 to 5900 so it would shift alittle sooner! I tell u what, it pays to have freinds like Brian around! I think if i throw the M/Ts back on the car and go from a light, that will be about as close as i get to re-creating the track scenario.
I know this is an old post, but setting the shift mph to 0 can cause the PCM to skip from 1st gear to 3rd gear. Mostly this is related to a higher stall TC with high shift extension allowing the RPMs to remain high after the 1-2 shift is commanded. If the RPMs remain above the 2-3 shift RPM even briefly, the PCM will command the shift to 3rd.
