you can upshift if you want i do for racing because i have an aftermarket shifter but DO NOT downshift it wrecks the transmission. If you car is shifting at 5500 at part throttle then something went wrong when they installed the kit....the only difference you should notice is it shifts a lot harder

Make sure you adjusted the throttle cable properly. If not then it is only shifting at line pressure. Which could be a bad thing.
