Eddie, can you tell us anything about the ability of this unit to modify transmission shift point?

Thanks

I have a 6-speed so I can't say for sure how it works but according to the ACCU PRO instructions, it is supposed to adjust the shift points on automatic when you set it for your new tires and/or gears.

So it sounds like it is feature that does it's own thing... not a seperate setting where you can customize it on your own?! I wonder if it just bumps the shift points/RPMs up by a percentage or what... seems like it'd have to do it based on something.

Honestly, I'm not 100% sure but if you want to do some custom fine tuning, you should consider getting the Power Pro Performance Tuner instead of the ACCU PRO. Although, it is about $200 more too.

I saw that thing... but I didn't think it would work for our JK's... if ou go on 4wheelparts website, they only have Dodge, Chevy, GMC, and Ford. Of course that's the same for the one you have... same listing of applications. So at this point, I'm not sure it'll work for ours. If it did/does, I'd certainly be interested in it.

Do you know for sure that it too will work?

BTW, neither programmer appears to adjust shift points, it says it just adjust shift firmness. The difference between the two is that the more expensive one does everything the lesser does plus allow you to raise the top spped limiter (who cares), allows you to raise your vehicles max RPM (who cares), allows you to modify when the cooling fan comes on (may be useful) and increases power (can't hurt).
