Default Superchips WOT shiftpoints and rev limit

I tried to change the WOT 1-2 shiftpoint thru SC FP on 87 tune, It says need to change rev limit. When I try to change rev limit, SC says option not available. Anyone know why I can't change it. I Like the 87 tune, But don't like how high the WOT shift points are set.

WOT 1-2 on the 87 tune shifts at 6500rpms, on stock it shifted at 3000 rpms. I would like around 5000 to 5500 rpms, as anything above 6000 rpms seems to high, Specially for a mostly stock truck.

Your stock tuned shifted at 3000rpms during WOT? Stock shifts are around 5600rpms...if yours was at 3000 then something is wrong that needs to be fixed before putting in a tune. Whatever is causing the low/high shifts is also effecting your tune...the SC doesn't come out of the box set to 6500rpm shifts. It can be raised that high I think but it's an option.

i think he meant to say stock shifts at normal throttle were 3000rpm.

Why would he say he wants the tune to shift around 5000-5500 then...when the stocker already does.

I meant to put a 4 where my 3 was...., So much for proofreading.

4000rpms

One thing is for sure, I Never hit 5000rpm's at WOT on the Stock tune, Infact that was one of the reasons I wanted the SC, Stock tune barely let do anything.

Positive... Mywife can confirm, Id barely get to 15mph before it shifted.

You know I have never reset the ECU on this thing, I wonder if I should give it a go and do some data logging, At least I think that I saw SC logs shifts and rpms.
