Are you just holding your camera in your videos? Pretty steady if you are!!
It got a little sideways off the line...

Dumpin money in it.. what else?

What do ya think, Ty? I'm tryin to catch ya... I was having some boost issues off the line, I think that it was because of the old revo program... I was only seeing 10 psi at the most... I bet I could be in the 12.3x's if I could get my 60' time down. I was runnin them down in the big end for sure!



I don't think that anything is wrong, but I think it could be better.

What Smarty tune are you running, mine holds gears higher into the Rs before shifting? 3500-3700 every shift, but I also run the Race series VB from Suncoast, I'm not sure which controls what.

The revo program that came with it... that was the first time that I ran the smarty, I did not have a chance to download a different program.

I don't have springs, so I gotta watch it on the big end... don't need not valves kissin pistons...

Your V/B controls your shift points 1-2 2-3 and a solenoid gets a signal from the ECM to shift into O/D. Mine shifts about like yours. 3300 rpms 2-3 and 3600 3-4. I see 3600 rpms unlocked in 1st.

So, that's it then... or is there a way to change the shift point?

You can tune your V/B to shift the way you want. It works off line pressure but you have to drive it on the street so you don't want to change it too much.

It runs great on the street now... I hear a lot of people saying "You can't DD a 600 hp truck..." well, I don't know what kind of HP they use, but mine drives FINE!!!
