Sweet, good to know about being able to program the shift light per shift. might look into one as well

still debating whether to go the e85 route.. waiting for some results from another member doing the same, as like everyone else we really don't know how much gain there will be as we can't just up the boost like a turbo setup, we could however increase timing/tune afr more aggressively.

You still may show HP increasing but you will be losing the rate of acceleration.

Do some testing, and you can fine tune the shift point to your liking as needed.

If you did the pull thru the gears you may notice a different shift point for different gears...good to know if you plan to race.

I ended up installing an Auto Meter Shift Light (guage style) using an 'A Pillar Guage Pod' crafted by 'Gale Force' - one of the members here.
This shift light allows you to program each shift, and being located in the guage pod, it is much easier to see than the OEM one ...

My dyno graph indicated to shift between 6900 and 7000 (with some other performance upgrades) and that worked for me.
