Verdad Gallardo What rpm does the converter go to on the launch and what rpm drop do you have on the shift? I sent my converter to PTC to have it tightened 800 rpms. Got it back took the launch from 70% to 50% and it stood up and broke a limiting chain. After the broken parts are fixed I'm excited to get it back out.
haven't look at the 1st to 2nd shift drop thats what I got to see now....i know without 2-step on brake it stall to 4000... I set 2 step at 3500 only 60ft was 1.32 1.34 then set at 3800 It went to a 1.24. 1.27 got new slicks now 1.30,1.34 think it still to tight not sure
Once you get it dialed in then try 3300 and 3700 and see if it likes either one better. Every car likes something a little different just need to find out what yours likes.
lane @ ptc said he thinks it need to be tighter. I shift at 6900 but haven't watch gear change yet...
