Default 3:46 gear

New tune on the TCU seems to have fixed the shifting issue. This gear really makes this car come alive all over again. It was a handful before, but now the shifts come a little quicker. And with drag radials, well, I feel like I am launching my old big Camaro. Had to get used to driving it down the track rather than just hanging on. After launch, it seems to immediately shift to 2nd, and 3rd comes in quicker as well, and we actually see 4th before the end of the quarter. Can't wait to get it on a timed track. But, that may have to wait until spring. Getting ready to pack her in the garage for the winter. Like I have said before, this mod is not for the faint of heart, or a cheap modification. I am glad I done it. It works for me, but unless you are going to do some performance racing, I wouldn't recommend it. You round trackers would love it. Most certainly the drag racers would love it too. And truthfully, it is fun on the road as well. It is like driving an muscle car with 4:11's. Everything happens quickly. But, it still drives normally. Love it. Thanks, Jim, Rudy.
