My GS4TT doesn't rev that fast (at least I don't remember it revving that fast). I am doing my dyno pulls in 3rd gear, rolling into it,...then hard on the throttle once I am past 4k so it doesn't downshift to second.
The runs are also being done in 3rd as this trans is a 4spd auto. I'm honestly the last person to be able to understand or explain if it is reving fast or not or which technique they used to dyno the car. I do know that the car jumps into boost instantly with the slightest of lag. I took her up to 18 psi on the highway and it was pretty scary how fast she climed into the 125+ range but the tune is still off so it will be at another tuner tuesday so we should know by than hopefully. I expecting 400+ but we'll see. I do have to mention that the TC is the best buy so far. Slightest of lag and than lock and load. I was most worried about this item and the 3200 stall spd but she grabs fine with little slippage under 2k rpm and than you feel the grabbing around 2500. From there she feels great and when she locks at 3200 its a blast. Love the tc I would recommend it to anyone with this set up.

You coming down for HIN? I will be there for sure.

Thanx a lot guys for the comments I appreciate them as always. She is coming along slowly but surely over the years. I'll have more info hopefully next week.
