Superchips tuning question...

So I am tuning the truck... fixed the tire size and speedo calibration.
Adjusted shift points and rev limiter... and went with the 91 tune...
my question is: What shift points did you guys go with?
I am at:
1-2 WOT = 5500 rpm
2-3 WOT = 5650 rpm
rev limiter to 5800
speed limiter to 140mph
what did you guys go with?

At the recommendation of my local performance shop I've been at:
Rev Limit = 6200
1-2 WOT = 6100
2-3 WOT = 5900
Speed Limiter = 140
For about 2.5 years now, I almost never "hit it" to WOT anyway, but the boys at KRC Performance (and confirmed by Superchips) advise that these settings are perfectly safe and SC also states that these are probably the most common settings, at least on the Hemi engine...

factory rev is set at 5800. i pull mine to 6200 before i shift at the track and its not screaming just keeps pulling. everything else is set 100 rpm lower than rev limiter. for each shift point, 140 on the mph. gonna hit that one of these nights coming home from work

I went out and played...
3rd gear is a dog, so I stretched the shift points a bit more on 2-3...
I am uploading a vid of the tuner, if youtube ever finishes the upload...

Neat video, thanks eric, cool to see the programmer in action. How does the truck feel after tuning, any seat of the pants difference? Superdak, how's it feel to you? Anyone else that has one, please chime in.

all I can say is that there is a BIG difference from 20mph+
it actually feels stronger all around, but from a roll, its night and day.
No more lag when stepping into it... it just goes now.
I am sold on it.
I am going to check out the economy tune thursday when I take my mom back down to the airport... its a full tank of gas so it will get me a good idea of mileage.
