We have the the newest patch set up but when you are wot and touch the clutch it cuts to early and will not give the revs back till the clutch is all the way out. With it off the floor you never know its there and the revs come back much faster. I would say the NLTS no matter how you have it setup off the top will kill a good driver ET by .002.

It can also mess you up if you lean on the pedal when you are getting ready to shift it cuts out. Can be real annoying on the 1/2 shift.

When I go to lift shift I am still wot for just a sec while I push the clutch down so it will activate the NLTS even though I am sill lifting. I have the TPS set to 99%.

If the NLTS was a set RPM like I do on the DSM or AEM then it would not be qute as bad but when you launch in 1st and are getting ready to shift at 7k but you lean on the clutch a 6 and it cuts out it really kills the pass. I try things like adjing the switch down and the pedal up but that can cause outer hyd problems if you end up with to much preload.

Lucas thanks for this info as we have one of our cars having similar issues w/ his NLTS on his stock ecu.

Same exact probs as you just described.

I've already told our tuner Sean about this and will be working on setting his up like yours off the top switch

Im curious what are you settings for your rpm drop and your minimum load on the activation of the NLTS? I have never encountered any issues with using the NLTS patch at the track. My current settings are 98% Throttle Position, I believe around 220 load, and 800rpm drop.

Here's my last track video and you can clearly hear there's zero delays or bliping inbetween shifts: http://videos.streetfire.net/video/E...ock_157374.htm

im set up with a delay toggle off the bottom of the pedal. its ajustable in and out. my NTLS are very quick. my car is a 05 so being at the bottom sometimes messes with the launch control.
