The 4th ratio is supposed to be the closest 1:1 fake gear in my trans, however it automatically upshifts at 6250, not redline at 6500

Well you can put it into the gear that doesnt involve a rubber band?

I'll give you some new ones at the next meet.

Wouldn't peak power be falling off after 6250 anyways? I'd put it on the dyno and see how it looks.

My buddy with a modded 2009 Max had his on the dyno about a month ago. He said if he didn't remove the ABS fuse, the peak hp readings were all over the place and not very consistent... even if leaving it in M4.

Peak bhp is actually at 6400 revs.

It's actually been shown to handle 400whp quite well... just a PITA to dyno correctly
