The percentages refer to the amount of pedal applied or pressed down.
As an example, when I am babying the truck I only give it a little bit of gas. Because I am babying it, I don't want it hold ing the shift for too long, I want it to shift earlier than I want it to when I am really stomping on it. So at 15% throttle, I have my shifts set for 1800 rpm.
Other times I might be getting on it a little more, but still not trying to haul ***. So say at 40% I have it set to shift at 2500 rpm. 60%, I shift at 5000 rpm, etc. It's all up to the individual user.
Some guys are really into mpg, so they can set theirs to shift early. I don't particularly care about mpg one way or the other, so my shifts schedule is much more aggressive.
My truck feels like a completely different animal than it ever did without an adjustable tuner. I will never go back to non user adjustable shift points.
Here is my current shift schedule. When my ported throttle body arrives next week, I will be increasing the shifts.
1st- 2nd Increase Too
15% 1800 2000
25% 2000 2500
33% 2500 3000
40% 2500 3300
60% 5000
2nd-3rd
10% 1800 2000
20% 2000 2500
30% 2500 3000
40% 2500 3300
60% 5000

Perfect thank Rubberfrog. I wasn't aware that you could go into depth like that. I thought it was just a one stop setting. I just updated my tuner yesterday from the 9r01 version that it initially had.....lol
This is all new to me. i wasn't far off. it was just the in depth adjustments that I wasn't understanding. I'll try and do what you've got and go from there. it's a start.
Do you have any idea what Diablo sets these up with their specific tunes??? Are yours increased from what they have already done? or are they barley above stock settings?
