Tuning question. Heres the scenerio - I installed 3.42 gears, a TCI SSF convertor (tightened up a touch), and 295/50-15's (26.7-in tall). I used my HP Tuners software to recalibrate the gear, tire size and diameter. I also recalibrated the shift points at WOT to 5500/5500/5800 as well as moving the "P/N cutoff" and "Bad Vss Cutoff RPM" to 6700.
Having done all of this the car drives MUCH better at part throttle and all the way up to maybe 8/10ths throttle but when hammered all the way to the floor it still appears that it is getting onto the rev limiter before it shifts. Is there something that I missed? I am beginning to think that I have a bad spark plug as well but I do not see how that could be making it appear as if it is on the rev limiter. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for any and all help.

PS- I did a search in the forums for various subjects relating to this but didn't really find anything that pertained to my delima here or at the HP site.
