    Confused as to how to change shift RPMS

    As stated I feel as though I have modified everything. Im aiming to get the car to shift at 6200RPMS but it is currently shifting at about 5600-5700. Any ideas would help.

    Thanks

    Your WOT and Normal shift values are no where near 6200 rpm. You need to take the displayed RPM value and multiply it by the transmission gear ratio to derive the theoretical engine shift RPM.

    Yes. The tables are in output RPMs. Not engine RPM. So each table shift RPM must be multiplied by the transmission gear ratio to get a desired engine rpm for shift.

    Still missing it I guess. So lets take the 1440 in the above pic. We are multiplying that number by the gear ratio for that gear? 1440 x 3.60 or say 6500 x 3.60 . I thought you would just multiply the percentage of the rpm for engine change to the output rpm.

    This should help you, but yes you multiply the output shaft rpm in the grid times the current gear's ratio. so 1.440 x 3.6 = 5,184 engine rpms.

    So with that being said. Why did it shift at 5600 then. LOL

    Without a log, cant confirm in fact it did shift at that rpm. And when someone says "It shifted at xxx rpm" what exactly does that mean? You can log when it will start to command an upshift, and then I consider the moment the rpms fall as the shift being completed, I have never seen this be closer (usually more) than 2-300rpms to the commanded shift rpm. 5,500 would be pretty acceptable if the tune commanded 5200.

    You need to raise your EOT RPM Limits under the transmission->general tab.
