Default What should my shift points be set at

Just got the car tuned after heads and cam install but now my auto is bouncing off the limiter way too quickly in my opinion,especially right before or in between shifts, i think the limiter is only at like 6,500 right now maybe, also i had the old tune setup for 3.42 gears and i went to 3.70's so not sure if the tuner adjusted for that either

You should probably shift around 6500, so maybe 6800 would be a good cut off. What would bother me is that your tuner set it at 6500 and maybe didn't recalibrate the speedo for the gears either. If that's the case it sounds like this guy is cluless lol
