Testing NLTS Tephra V5.10 **Video**

Testing out the Tephra V5.10 NLTS aka No Lift To Shift program. Keith helped me out with the program. The program helps no lift shifting by decreasing the rev amount by 800rpms (you can change the rpms to your liking) from your rev limit when your no lift shift, we set it up to activate at 98% throttle and a speed pass 30kph/25mph. Thing about the NLTS mode is you really cant lift while shifting, as soon as you slightly touch the clutch, it activates, as you can see on the first run, I lifted fourth gear since my syncro was bad, and the car stumbled hard, it kinda felt like fuel cut to me, the third run was smooth in all gear changes, amazingly fourth went in just fine. All in all, if you want to have better times at the drag strip while not hurting your engine, I believe NLTS is a pretty good way to do it.
All comments are welcomed.

Haha, nice! It's a program thats already in a tune from english racing I believe, Aaron tuned our cars on tephra version 7 if I recall, Keith just had the computer to install the tephra version 5.10 NLTS, since he had all the hardware to install it, I decided to try it out

Still spinning like crazy off the line. (Well, not in that pass). Car will not go into gear sometimes over 8k. And radiator is smoking hot. 10.88 at 136mph first pass.

WTF? You missed third again? Taking pics of the radiator and sending it to you via phone. Both fans are detachable, and are slim fans.

I'm going to try a couple things today. New shifter bushings, and I'm going to extend the clutch pedal rod a bit. Maybe it's not fully disengaging at high rpm. If that slim fan works I'll take it!
