Default Shift points?

Just wondering what the rpm shift points are for a 2007 Magnum SE with the 2.7 liter engine. I'm seeing about 2500 to 3000 rpms before it kicks down into 2nd gear. At hwy speed I'm seeing 75mph at 2500 rpms. Are these typical?

Can't give you an answer but something to remember is that the adaptive technology they use on these trannies will change shift points based on the driver. A lead foot driver will have different shift points than somebody who is a feather touch driver. The first two months I had my Magnum I lead footed around and the next two months I drove with a light touch looking to get better mileage. It was interesting to see some shifts points change by +/- 400 rpm. So even if you get an answer it will be based on their driving style, not yours. But maybe you will get at least a ballpark range from someone.
You may be able to change your shift points using a tuner.

i have a 06 magnum 3.5L. I have 2,200 rpm at 70 mph. Your 2,500 doesnt seem out of range depending on your final gearing and transmission option. As stated above your shift points will change based on your habits. You could always pull fuse 11 under your hood for a minute. this will reset your ecm and start learning all over.
