Partial Throttle Shift Points
Well I've been playing with my trans settings (HPT) for about a year and I'm coming to find that the stock settings for partial throttle are working better that what I can come up with.
Stock I had 3.42 gearing and 31.6" diameter tires.
Now I have 3.73 gears and 30.50" tires
I would assume that with the stock speeds in the partial throttle tables I am actually turning more rpms than I did with the taller gearing and tires, about %15?
What do you guys (with similar tire/gear) do to 'enhance' partial throttle shifts?

go into "systems" change the gearing and tire size and it will automatically scale the trans tables....
And yes the factory part throttle shift points are hard to improve up-on.

I have fine tuned mine from stock a little bit but not far... My tcc settings are a bit different though... Its set never to lock in 2nd or 3rd gear, and only in 4th over 55mph and only then under 50% TPS. It unlocks under 45mph. I know it sounds strange but I like it. I treat it as a "cruise gear" and am extremely careful with this clutch since it is in a fullsize truck and never meant to be...

Once your tire size and gearing are set, HPTuners changes all the other trans table automatically. So if you want stock shift points, copy/paste from a know stock bin file. then just change the gearing and tire size to match your.
