who's shift points schedule is better for low end off the line power ?? need help deciding

also what to set the wot and 1-2 2-3 at ? and what to i do with the TQ managment ...this is all new to me .

If you use my shift schedule or Rubberfrogs (George's), you should be in a good starting point.

Here's my latest:
Rev Limiter: 6250
Speed Limiter: 106 <- Stock - it's what my tires are rated for. However many have it maxed at 140
WOT 1-2: 5900
WOT 2-3: 5850

I set my TM as follows:
WOT 1: 10%
WOT 2: 10%
WOT 2P: 10%
WOT 3: 10%
WOT 4: 30%

Part 1: 8.8% for all 4 RPMs
Part 2: 8.8% "
Part 2P: 8.8% "
Part 3: 8.8% "
Part 4: 30% "

I think it's good, however, it's all subjective - what feels good to me may not be what you're looking for. Just load it up and tweak from there.

 

[ramhunter9]

well loaded your trans tune close to yours .

then loaded your settings ....

and it has more power ... for 87 tune as i still have a half tank .

one thing i didnt like is it took forever to wind up to hit the wheels . any thoughts ?

i wonder what the difference will be in the 91 tune ?

and most of all how do i get the report like you have for the shift points to see how close i am to yours ?

what do you mean by this?

 

[ramhunter9]

like it reved up real good but didnt realy move like it should . until it hit like 3k

 

[ramhunter9]

in other words she didnt break loose on the tires until 3k

 

[Ramunit]

Does it do this every time or did it just do it once?

 

[ramhunter9]

ever time on take off is was slow .... then ran like a striped ape

 

[ramhunter9]

could this be because im running a 87 tune ?

im tore between Marks and Matt's list .

i want off the line power what will be best to start with . keep in mind its a mega

 

[Silverbullet08]

then u can adjust like 1up and make it more aggressive. i would also lower ur rev limiter

 

[ramhunter9]

lower the rev ? what will that do ?

and adjust like 1up , per spot ? or adjust the 1 up setting ?

 

[ramhunter9]

ok ok ... just explain one thing ... for low end power do you want a big sweep in the graph or bunched up .. im comparing mikes and marks .

 

[0212353]

big sweep, if you are out of gear faster (bunched up), you will be shifting to 2nd at 2,000 rpm at WOT. LOL, don't need that.

you get the point.

Give the truck some time to learn the tune too.

 

[ramhunter9]

im using marks now with the tow tune to see how it does .
till i run out of 87 oct

mark what tune are you running with that schedule

 

[RubberFrog]

I suggest you stuck with one trans schedule for at least a week so you can really get a feel for it.

 

[ramhunter9]

ya im going to stick with marks . running the tow tune for now till i get this 87 oct out .

Dave,

Couple of things to try...but, first Tow requires 91 or better octane. If your truck is pinging, change the tune to 87 until you burn up that fuel.

Try this simple throttle recalibration procedure: Turn the key to ON (DO NOT START), mash the throttle to the floor and hold for 10 seconds. With pedal still at the floor, turn key to OFF and continue to hold for another 10 seconds. Slowly release the throttle. This should give you better throttle response.

Download the Excel spread sheet to your PC and update the TP% values (if different) and then plug in your set points. The graphs will update automatically.

P.S. I'm leaving shortly for Watkins Glen for the race so I'll be away till next week. So, if you don;t hear from me you'll know why?

 

[ramhunter9]

cool done thanks ..

how do i get the spread sheet ?
