EDGE Standard Shift Points

I haven't ordered an Edge yet, but I just read the manual and it states that I can apply a (+) or (-) percentage value that will cause the transmission to shift sooner or later. My truck shifts into 3rd at about 20 mph and stays there until 40 mph. I'd like it to shift into 4th at about 30 mph. Does anyone know if I can just change the 3-4 shift and leave the rest alone, or does the offset apply to all of the shift points?

Honestly, most people here buy the edge for the performance aspect of it and want later and firmer shifts. It sounds like you want to try and get better gas mileage. Anyways, you should be able to go into the custom tuning section on your edge and adjust your shift points and firmness. On mine it allows me to adjust the point at which my tranny shifts based on RPM, and I can also adjust shift firmness. Play around with your edge, adjusting firmness and the shifting RPM until you find something you like.

I get better mileage with my performance settings with the edge.

I'll get better peformance without any custom tuning. I'm not worried about that. The RPM shift points you're referring to apply to WOT settings and I've read tons of posts on this topic. It's a different method for the Standard Shift Points. If I had an Edge, it would be easy enough to figure out, but I don't, yet. That's why I posted. I'm just trying to figure out if there are separate parameters for each Standard Shift Point, or if there's a single adjustment parameter that affects them all equally.

yes, you can change the normal shifts individually, though I have not. Those i leave as Edge set them and I like them quite well. I do set the performance points and pressure.

If you haven't already, you can go to Edge's web site and print out the manual. This helped me before I purchased mine.

I did. I read the whole thing before I posted, but it's a little ambiguous:

Standard (Std.) Shifting
On automatic transmissions, these are the MPH points at which the vehicle will want to shift during normal acceleration. Positive values will cause later shifts while negative values will cause shifts to occur sooner.
Thanks again for your help.
