I see. So what do I set my "High RPM" too then? Do I just leave it?

Your highest rpm you'll see, I think it over rides lower settings and let's you know to shift, your at your max rpm. Also, check where your rev limit rpm is, as this will cut fuel and you don't want your shift points to hit rev limiter.

Here's something that may work for launch and 1st shift rpm. Set 1st gear rpm at your launch rpm, say 3500rpm, then set max rpm to your highest shift rpm and I think it will come on in first at that rpm also. I don't know for sure but I think this is how it works. You could try it in drive way at two low rpms and see if you get the shift light twice in 1st.

Maybe the light will come on at the gear set RPM, then turn off at HIGH RPM setting.

I ended up with high rpm at 3500 and 1st at 3500, then 0 rpm for rest of gears, as it's only for my launch rpm and did not want an additional light flashing when shifting, only raptor for shift points. Been working great at the track.

I do not think it works for F-bodies. I set mine up and nothing happened. No light cam on at any RPM that I noticed.
