WOT shift MPH to 0, does it work?

[RonSSnova]

Hi,

I was reading here that to get the trans to respond to RPM only when in D (3) at WOT that one can set the WOT shift speed 1-2 and 2-3 to 0.

Makes sense, but does it work?

I'm wondering if it would completely foul up WOT downshift.

No, it really doesn't work well. Just spend the time finding the right MPH.

[RonSSnova]

Good to know. Thanks.

I have one log of a run when the car actually shifted for me manually. So I know the MPH and the RPM where it shifted. How much offset works?

I was on street rubber, so I really couldn't use "D" for the runs as first gear was useless and it would have shifted early.

I could post that log if I knew how????

I found that setting mph about 3-5 under the actual rpm you want to command works well.

Well, according to logs from last evening, my C5 is shifting by mph.
These were the first runs with drag radials and enough traction to floor it out of the hole.
I moved rpm around and it didn't care.

I seem to have better luck with the MPH. Mine pretty much ignores the RPM.

I like mine to be triggered by RPM. Both mph and rpm have to be triggered for it to shift. So I set my mph 3-5 under what it really should shift at and then let it shift once it hits the rpm I want.

I zero out the WOT shift MPH and use just RPM, works like a champ.

[RonSSnova]

Ok. I'm going to try it.
BTW, what car do you have? Mine is a C5 vette and have read that they might be different?
Thanks.

Didn't work for me.

You have a 6L80E? I have only seen it work on 4L60/80E's

I did at the time, yes. Now I have a TH400
