  • Engine problem

    Twice at the track, I either hit the rev limiter or the car is missing. But it only happened on the 2-3 shift. Any ideas? I haven't changed the shift points or messed with the rev limiter.

      It was right around redline (full throttle shift). The only thing I've changed on the car is the 3.73 gears. I'm not sure how the computer determines when to shift, but if it is at a set rpm, is it possible that since the rpm's are climbing faster than stock, that the transmission doesn't react quickly enough to the signal to shift that it's bumping the rev limiter? I was going to try setting the shift point 100 rpm lower with the Hypertech to see what that would do.
