    Default Tunning to hold 3rd gear??

    Can I tune the PCm on my 99 camaro to change into 3rd gear when I just select 'D', I have 1st holding , 1st gear selected, force 1->2 upshift at speed set at 412 km/h, then set the when in 2nd force 1->2 upshift at 0 km/h, so it goes straight to second as soon as i move the level to '2', but i want to hold 3rd also when i put it in 3rd but the only other option is the when in 1st force 2->3 upshift (currently at 412)?? any ideas

    Manual 3rd gear uses the normal part throttle/WOT Upshift/Down tables (D0903, D0907, D0908).
    The tune (stock) will do manual hold 1st when in manual 1st and manual 2nd when in 2nd gear. For 3rd, set D0901 and D0910to 1 (for the whole table) and D0902 and D0915 to 2, and so on. Max out all the downshifts tables.

    Basically, the stock tune is "Manual" for 1st and 2nd, but put it in the 3rd gear position, it is automatic for 1-2-3 gears. Setting like above will put it into 3rd right away as soon as you move the shifter to manual 3rd gear. I would save the above settings for the "performance mode" tables if you can and hook up the switch (so you can still drive normally in normal mode.
