I dont see any tranny modes on your list. I have a superchip and it moved my rev limiter up to 7000 and i can still only do 60mph in 2nd gear, so where does your redline cut out? I know the gearing is different for the ATX but is it that big a diff? Is this something only the zetec can do.That would greatly improve 0-60 times. Last edited by Mental Case; 02/12/03 04:22 AM.

When 2nd gear shifts out at 65 the engine is reving so high it sounds like its gonna explode. Its ok though Its a tough little engine...it likes the abuse
