Default hit limiter on 1-2 shift what to do -1mph with hypertech?

After changing my charger pulley When I smash it out of the hole I hit the limiter on the shift from 1st - 2nd.

my shift points are all set at stock and shift firmness at 75%.

my rev limiter is at 6400 and I am afraid of just going up on the limiter???

should I just go minus -1 on the 1-2 shift?
I am also wondering if I should leave it alone since I will be running et streets most of the time when racing it on the street and MAYBE then it'll hook up and not bang the limiter from spinning?????????

THANKS!

Your choices are to reduce shift points or up the limiter (directly). If you are comfortable with your limiter try reducing the poitns.

You might also try a greater line pressure (to increase shift speed). I would also verify you tranny fluid level.

Take the Rev Limiter to 6600... I say that's better than slamming against the rev limit all the time. It'll only be there for a split sec.

I had mine set at 6600 ever since I was able to. When I put the SC in, I bumped to 6800. It will sometimes rev as high as 66xx and even 6700 if I spin and it revs really quickly.

The only guys I've heard of hurting their valvetrains due to over rev are M6's.

It won't hurt to change it and try it... you can always put it right back. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

thanks black ls1, I think that sounds better, like you said it'll only be there a second until it shifts.
