HELP...raising shift points on LS1edit man this sh*t is pissing me off.i raised the values to 6700/6699 on the limit by gear table.but the car still bumps the limiter on 2-3 gear upshift.i shift the car manually because i still have not learned how to raise the values on the TRANS CALIBRATION tables.one other thing,when i leave the car on drive,it nevers hits the limiter,only when its manually shifted.i hate leaving it on drive because it shifts at 5900 rpm every gear.please help.
Re: HELP...raising shift points on LS1edit A4 shifting takes time to work out, but it's easy enough.
Go to http://www.f-body.org/gears/ and run your setup through the calculator. Print that page out. Now, remember that it will NOT correspond to your actual shift points. It can be as much as 800-900 RPM off. So use it as a *guideline* for comparison, but not as actual data.
Now, look at your Transmission Calibration page under LS1Edit. See the Normal Shift MPH? Change those tables to where you want them to shift at WOT, per the table you printed out. For example, if the current setting is 34 mph on the 1-2, and you need to drop it by a few hundred RPM, set it to 31 MPH (or whatever the 'drop' is indicated by the printout).
Then, go to the Normal Mode Shift Speed table, and change the cells at 87%, 93%, and 100% to be the same values you put in the Normal Shift MPH table earlier.
And that should do it.
If you want, you can change ALL the tables (hot, performance, etc) to be the same values. But I'm pretty certain that the Normal Mode is the one you'll need. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
Hope that helps,
