fxstsmith Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 Is it stock? Does it have a tune, Shift kit? If your truck is stock it should shift from 1-2 @ 5600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fxstsmith Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 You would have to have somebody read your pcm to tell if its been altered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zippy Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 Trust me, that isn't even enough rpm to loose sleep over. I've had these LQ9's to 7k and wasn't worried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
