Shift strategy idea

[Pocket]

Well, the shifting works. I still have a few tweaks to make, but it shouldn't be much at all. Works great driving uphill at over 6000 ft elevation.

Bad part is that I've had my truck back for less than 24 hours, and the power steering decided to puke on me I'm not sure if it's the pump, or if I blew a line. Gonna have to dive in and find out, but there's power steering fluid sprayed all over the wheel well, and dripping down the axle and driver's side suspension. This truck is really pissing me off with one thing after another breaking

Anyway, here's a quick screenshot of what I'm doing. This is the 1-2 shift, and the others look similar:



I just need to move the first jump over to the right just a bit. I don't fuel much at light pedal, and I'm having to hit the pedal a little harder, so I'm sitting at the second tier just a tad earlier in the pedal than I would like. Also I'll probably raise the first tier just a smidge, and possibly lower the second tier very slightly. Same goes for the 2-3 shift. However, the 3-4 shift is nearly dead on, and the torque converter lockup is happening almost exactly where I want it. Downshifting is also very predictable now, and happens just about where I want it.

For me, this just seems to make the trans shift points so much easier to manipulate, and helps me to make the shifts happen when I want it on the pedal. Might not look like much, but it helps me tremendously.... especially being just a novice tuner.
