OK, here are the shift points at WOT:

1st WOT: 5100 @40°F
2nd WOT: 5200 @40°F

1st WOT: 5100 @62°F
2nd WOT: 5100 @62°F

However, a drop from 4th to 2nd yields a 5400 RPM shift to 3rd almost every time. And a drop from 3rd to 2nd (OD off) yields a 5400+ shift to 3rd every time. I could have sworn I saw a 5500 RPM shift and about had a heart attack this morning. Maybe the tach is a little off, but the dealer mentioned it was spot on so who knows at this point.

5500 is over the top. Fun, but dangerous.

Yeah I've got my shifts set to 5250, that's how my tune from VMP came. I wouldn't go over that, cause setting shift points to 5400+ is just asking for trouble.
