SCT TUNER=Hard shift?
Hey i just got the VMP intake and the SCT xcal 2 tuner and when i gun it real hard the shift from second to third seems really hard. Is this normal? or is this something i need to worry about?
Their fine probably. Lot of custom tunes increase the pressure.

No, [&o]Just put it on the to do list. Hopefully I can convince my parents to loan me a few thousand dollars and I can get it in the group buy! I have a month to work em and hopefully that's enough. I also must work my *** off at work and get more hours to show them how much I really want it. BTW, Factory VMP tune? Just check the shift pressures of the tune on the sct, it's one of the options.

odds are that justin did increase the shift pressures. i dont think he would put em at 25%. thats really hard on the tranny. ok for the strip but NOT for DD. mine are set at 10% firmer.

I also have a VMP tune (93). The shifts are extremely hard, do not increase the shift pressure on those tunes.Try not to get on it and lift before it shifts, thats the best advice I can give.

Firm shift is what you want. Many people have spent a fortune on shift kits in the past to achieve a firm shift. 25% does seem a bit much though steel. I wouldnt worry about it alsoknowazg, thats a sign of a good tranny, and Id say it is all in the tune.
