Gear and Torque Converter Install/Prog ?'s
I'm doing a friends car and installing 3.42's (A4 currently with 2.73's) and around a 2800-3000 converter. Besides scaling the shift point table, WOT Shift points, and other basic programming changes, are there other changes required? The car is not raced only street driven but with an occasional spirited cruise.
I did mine (2.73's to 3.42's) and rescaled for the gears/tires, and shift points/WOT and it works great. But I did not do a converter at the time. Is there anything else I have to touch?
Thanks

Re: Gear and Torque Converter Install/Prog ?'s
Probably want to mess around the TCC lock/unlock points,
I eliminated 2nd & 3rd gear lockup in normal but left it in
cruise. Also did a lot of fiddling to get the lockup clutch to
hold better, trans force motor and pressure and TCC duty
tables.
Sounds like this guy wants to copy my Excel tables right
over. See the V8 General, Tuning Spreadsheets.
