Default Retuning with Hypertech

Does anyone have suggestions as far as resetting the shift points and or firmness on a A4 98 coupe, and Yes only the stock 2:73'S For now, what actually are the factory settings, and what can I safely change them too without adding too much temp rise to the tranny(I understand that Heat is an autos worst enemy), also Fan on /off temps, and any other tips that can be performed on the Hypertech tuner.

Thnx

I set the shift points like 1 notch lower than the max to be safe for the reasons you state. Forget what I set fan temps for , probably just took a guess.........

Is there a noticable difference, and what rpm does the tranny shift at with the new settings.

thnx

Fellow C5er used to fool around with hypertech. On back to back pulls he only gained 2 hp so i didn't see the point of paying 400 for it.

As for firmness.. You can set it on the firmest. It's not going to break the tranny.
