Some basic rules are implemented by the MAX MicroTuner for Shift Point options: 

 

If the Shift Point is raised, the Down-Shift point remains at the STOCK or 

Superchips 

Performance Program

 setting. 

 

If the Shift Point is lowered both the Up-Shift and Down-Shift settings are lowered 

proportionally. 

 

The WOT (Wide Open Throttle) setting is raised or lowered proportionally with the Up-

Shift setting. 

 

The following screens for editing the Shift Points are the same for all Shift Points, except the 
selected Shift Point replaces ‘n-n’ in the descriptions that follow. 

 

The MAX MicroTuner will beep and display the message: 

 

SHIFT POINT n-n  

 

MIN----ST----MAX

  

(n-n is 1-2, 2-3 or 3-4, ST = Stock) 

Or…

is approximately 10mph below the STOCK setting.

Press ‘>’ while MAX is flashing to select the

message:

(n-n is 1-2, 2-3 or 3-4)
