PT TM MGT will allow adjustment of four different RPM ranges. 1-4 shifts. (not shown)


PT SHIFT SCHEDULE you saw in this previous post: You can user adjust upshifts and keep downshifts at SC value or vice versa or use stock values as well.


Surprise added bonus in this firmware. When I can verify it will be included in production, I'll let you guys know.

In the slider picture that you posted, when you choose 100% TM is that the TM value set by the standard SC tune or is it the value set by the factory tune. Just wondering if choosing 100% would set it back to complete stock TM or the stock SC tune TM.

100% = Stock (factory tune). Lower percentages would be incrementally less TM, all the way down to 0%.

If 100% is the factory TM level and 0% is no TM, what percentage of TM is the performance 91 tune currently?

Is there going to be a way to know what the SC TM setting is?

Correct. Don't think they'll give the exact number, but I've seen Ron say on the Flashpaq forum it was roughly 80% removed. So anything under 20% will be an improvement over the SC value.

I know 10% setting here is much improved.

For instance, my '07 4.7 has a "unique" code that took months for SC to figure it out just to get the 3815 to work with it (hopefully this is not the case again).
I had my doubts when I plugged it into my truck since I have an 07 flex-fuel, but it worked just fine. I gotta say my hat is off to Superchips, the part throttle acceleration difference is fantastic! I did notice it raised shift points a couple mph, nothing dramatic though. The truck also seems to run lower rpm now at speed, maybe 50-100 less in 5OD lock.
I can now also answer my own question about octane. Even here over 4,500 feet, I still need to run 87 octane for the 87 octane tune. I was getting some uphill acceleration knock with 85.
The only issue I am having is getting the speedo set correctly. The default was for 31.75 inch tires, but I have the factory 20s with 33 inch tires. When I loaded 33 and drove around, my speedo is fast about 3mph at 60mph. I then tried 33.25, but that didn't quite fix it. Did I miss something? I left the final drive ratio at 3.92...
