Default 2002 Camaro SS - Need help with Predator shift options

I have the Predator U7198 with 2.13 revision. I am a bit confused on how to get my camaro to shift harder in the 1-2 shift. I used a predator a couple years back on my stock 2000 Camaro SS, it would chirp the tires on every 1-2 shift. Whatever revision I had at that time, seemed to have different options when modifying the tune. If I recall, there were far fewer options and I think there was a shift firmness option that gave me nice hard shifts.

Now, I have the following options:
Shift time - Upshift MPH - downshift mph - upshift rpm - WOT pressure - part throttle shift - and of course TM.

I have read very little on how I can adjust these parameters in tandem to get the results I want. I assume I turn all three Torque Management options off, after that I have no idea. Can anyone point me in the right direction or to information that can help me better understand these options?

Also, I do have a Yank SS 3600 convertor on my car, and soon to get some M/T ET streets and a small dose of Nitrous.

Shift time is set to the max speed in the tunes already, so changing it makes no difference unless modifying the factory tune.

Thanks
