    Default more aggressive downshift!? for turbo brake efficiency!!!

    hi all! it's my first post here!

    i have build a tune with exhaust brake and it's working fine but i have to downshift in manual mode! so i headed to my tcm and i put more aggressive number at downshift at 0%tps but it's almost doing nothing! i have read that we do not actually have access to full downshift table that why my downshift are slow! anyone know a way to have more aggressive down shift? or when are we gonna have access to those timing table?

    thank you!

    Same trouble but this time I can't figure it out! On lly 5 speed Allison the truck don't want to downshift a 0% throttle I even try at 6%! On my Lbz 6speed it worked fine but I can't get It working on my friend truck? Any tips??? :a

    Be sure that the corresponding upshift value is HIGHER than the downshift value. It will help to see the conflicts if you put both the upshift and downshift values on the same excel chart. The 2 lines should not cross anywhere.
