Thumbs down Hitting Rev Limiter on 1-2 Shift...

... the thing is NOTHING has been changed in the computer, rev limiter raised to 6500+ two years ago and it NEVER hit the limiter last year! Shifts are at approx. 6200 rpm.

I changed back the only item I changed out this spring and that was to put the MSD coil back on replacing the stocker, but have not been to the track since! Could using a stock coil cause me this problem?

Only does it under full throttle? Do you have a copy of your PCM file to look at?

What's the shape of your tranny? Could it be slipping a little and not completing the shift before it hits the rev limiter?

Cool

No copies of computer files, Skip.

Chad... hmmmm, didn't consider that! I'll check tranny fluid and stuff. Thanks.
