Default shift points (video)

I shot a video of my tach. It's a little blurry and there is no sound(sound card is screwed up), but you can see where I shift and how much(or little)the rpm drops between shifts.

I shift way past redline, but the rev limiter doesn't kick in. These factory tachs are off. The rev limiter is supposed to kick in at 5850, but I'm shifting at 6,000.

That particular run was poor, but not that poor.
