    Well, I suggest this:

    1. Program the correct octane for what you use
    2. Adjust the rev limiter to like +300-500
    3. Adjust the shift points to +300 for each gear
    4. Adjust the shift firmness to max

    That should get you the most out of that programmer. I use the Hypertech HyperPAC and it basically uses the same program, just with extras.
