    Torque Ratio for Downshift - what is the ratio of?

    I am trying to tweak the downshift timing tables, but I don't know exactly what the torque ratio is on the left axis.

    Can anyone help? Numbers range from 0.10 to 0.88. I really am trying to figure out for hard downshifts at high throttle, would it be at a low ratio (near zero) or high (near 1)?

    I could only assume it is a ratio of current torque vs. demand torque. In that case, the higher the separation, the lower the number.

    Maybe log the current vs demand and see where the numbers fall?

    Nothing seems to make sense other than driver demand torque % at this point. I asked support, we will see if they can answer.
