I'm guessing the car's power would drop off after 6000 rpms anyway, so no need for me to try this. If I see faster times by individuals at the track, then maybe I'll think twice about it. I do like the idea of having this when my car is dynoed, so it doesn't downshift automatically around 3000 rpms. Nice job guys on continuing to improve our cars. I'm afraid to touch my car now that it runs the way I like it.
When you shift at 6000rpm the next gear will start let's say at 4500 rpm, if you shift at 6500 the next gear will start at 5000 rpm, if you look at any dyno sheet the hp at 5000 are way more then the hp at 4500, so when you shift at 6500 the next gear will pull more, the increase power you will get from 4500 to 5000 are way more then the drop from 6000 to 6500, i'll bet you will see the difference on the track.
