    Don't think the WOT paddle shift time is in the tune.

    i guess the only thing for the paddle response is to learn exactly where to shift where u want it.. on my denali, i need to upshift around 300rpm before it shifts at my commanded 6500..

    Best to tune shifts where you want and leave it in D or S. I see no advantage using the paddles during WOT acceleration.

    Thanks for the reply, that would be great if I was just straight line driving but I want the paddle mode for locking the car in gear in the corners.

    Again, Thank You

    Wasn't thinking about the twisties. Yep, need a paddle that upshifts immediately for that type of racing.

    There are quite a few upshift, shift patterns and modes, pressure commands, etc. but don't know of any that control the paddles. Don't even know what most control.

    I think the problem you are going to find is that these tcm's are very complex to understand so while there might be something in the code for this it will likely be next to impossible to find and/or make it something people can understand.
    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...

    You Will Have To Pull Almost All Of The Shift Time Adders Out Of Most Of The Tune In Order To Get The Shift Time Down And It Still Will Not Fix The Delay From The Time You Hit The Button To When The Transmission Shifts.

    I Shift My G8 Gxp At 5000 Rpm's In First To Not Hit The 6400 Limiter.
