    Need some help with this 6L80E tune.

    After reading over the 6L80E tuning guide that's posted on grrrr8.net and getting a hold of the bluecat software I made my 2nd attempt at a trans tune. My first one didn't work well due to a failing valve body. This one I loaded up and so far I've noticed smoother more firm shifts. The only thing is it seems like the 2-3 happens to quickly or its just because the lazy shift is gone now, and that 5-6 shift takes quite a long time. The car stays in 5th until almost 50. Can someone look over the tune and maybe give me some input or at the very least tell me if I'm on the right track and if the tune is safe? The car has a stock engine and trans. The only mods are 3.27's x-pipe and muffler delete. Attached is the tune as well as a screen shot of the bluecat program with the info I put into it. Thanks.

    Yes the 2-3 can happen too quickly. Adjust the shift MPH up for that shift and down for the 5-6 until it shifts the way you want.

    Agree with blkscooby. Play with the mph until you like the way it shifts. Do you have a link to the tuning guide you are using? TIA.

    I changed up some of the info in the bluecat software and now all the shifts are right were I like them. The 1-2 shift still feels a little sluggish, but I'll work on that. This is the guide I used to help me along. http://www.g8board.com/forums/showthread.php?t=65550
