I'm set at 3,000 but, I want mine to hit as soon as converter flashes. I also spray through the shifts to 6800. If you don't have a progressive then I guess just play with the rpm above the flash to come in when you want.

Thats what i was thinking, maybe 3800-6200 but then it almost seems like a waste. Don't wanna spray during the shift tho

Are you concerned about your rear/trans? Do you have a particular goal?

I don't have/need a timing puller. I do it in the tune (currently at 18.5*, every car wants something different) on a 150. The mini lets you bring it in in % or time or both in decimal seconds. I just bring it all in on the hit, through the shift, and out the door
Best on a 150 is 9.91 @ 135.2 1.34 60'
Going to a 175 and 200 pill this weekend
