Re: rpm shift?

Did you ever check to see who re-programmed your PCM? Was it DHP, Intense or did the prior owner use a PowerTuner?

The stock WOT, tranny in D shift points are set for 5800 rpms. PCMs programmed for Stage 1 mods are set to shift around 6000 rpms and that is with performance shift on.

So if you are shifting 6200-6300 it is high for a stock engine. My Intense PCM is programmed to shift at 6200 rpms and rpm cutout is 6500 but I customed programmed for 1.8 roller rockers and my other mods. Therefore you have some form of Stage 2 programming. Do you notice any valve float at those rpms?

Re: rpm shift?

it is a factory pcm reprogrammmed by powertuner.

no i did not notice any valve float at all, or any out of ordinary for that matter. it winds right up to 6200-6300 very quickly like it should shifts, and winds back into with no shifting problems or motor issues. im just wondering shoudl it couase any long term issues?

Re: rpm shift?

It probably won't hurt but I wouldn't make a habit of WOT/pedal to the metal. The SII 3800 valvetrain is fairly reliable and resilient.

BTW - But as a friendly reminder just remember what happened to your other engine.

Good luck.

Re: rpm shift?

uuummmm. You better set your shift points back to stock. You dont have a CAM with 105lb springs or 1.8 ratio rockers or higher with 90lb springs. You not producing any power past 5400 RPMs. I would fix that ASAP otherwise you car will be hurting. I have 1.8 roller rockers and I have my 1-2 shift set to 6000 RPMs and the 2-3 shift set to 5800 RPMs. Unless you buy a VS or XP Cam you DO NOT want to set those shift points set that high. If you have the Power tuner there is a way to set your RPMs back to stock. I think you go to the RPM section and right click and set all back to stock / original.
