1st to 2nd WOT early shift problem.

I have an 07 SRT8 Charger and hate the way it will shift to second gear WAYYYY to soon when spinning in first. I know the autostick disable does not work on the 07-08's so will using the raised shift points in the diablo help with this pesky problem??

The problem during wheelspin is that the PCM sees you hit the MPH that commands an upshift, so it gets confused and shifts early.
Only way around this is sticky tires as far as I know...

Thanks

That what I was thinking. Sticky tires are on the way anyway. I hope my Half shafts hold up. :)

Well just installed the Predator 93cai tune and raised shift points along with the autostick disable and guess what. IT ACUALLY WORKS on my 07 SRT8!!! YYEEHHHAAA!!!

Either that or just let off on the gas a little when you start spinning them.
