    Hello!

    Definitely I can support you! But, first:
    - Which issues are you having?
    - Which improvements are you expecting to have?
    - What is the use of the vehicle?
    - Do you have a log?

    Thanks.

    Hi DodgeBoy,
    i dont have specific issues i just would like to optimise and imporve it (e.g. higher rpm). I dont know about the options, therefore i asked for help.
    Iam using the car in normal workdays, no extra specification.
    I have a log, attached, if you mean that under "log". if not, i dont have any others.

    thanks for your support in advance.

    Hello!

    It is possible to, on transmission side:
    - Increase RPM (shift point)
    - Decrease slip on torque converter
    - Shift pressure (quicker shift)
    - Torque management

    It is possible to, on engine side (in case you are planning on tune engine as well)
    - Torque management
    - Airflow
    - timing
    - Drivers demand
    - DFCO

    Thanks.

    Why do you want the car to shift at higher RPMs on a stock cam?
    I am not the guy that tunes transmissions, our username is similar. If yo message me about I am not replying anymore.

    fun factor and due to the fact that the stock 5.7 cam max shift rpm is just under 5500. I would stay around 5800, torque starts to drop off after that.
    Additionally, raising the shift rpm just isn't about that max rpm it also about landing the next gear in a more optimal rpm range if available.

    I am working on a stock 5.7L.
    Just adjusting the point I mentioned above, it was possible to increase torque, horse power and shift timing. So, only via software/tune it is possible to have a better powertrain behavior.
