even with my head and cam combo, my 22re still only really pulls hard up to 4500 RPMs, and then it just falls on it's face...

You need the 268 bleeder I can get mine to pull hard all the way to 5k in 3rd and 4th (had to check it out) and in 4th I am running 75 at that rpm and it sounds really good hard to believe but true.

I wish I had the tech to do a video like you have but no luck with that here, just so you could hear how good it sounds the 268 rocks with 5.29's and 35's

well, stock 22re specs are 116 HP @ 4800 RPM TORQUE 140 @ 2900 RPM, so shifting at 3k you're just nipping your power band.

i prefer to shift at 3500, and on flat roads i usually do. but it's not too flat in atlanta, and with the 33s i need to go that far so that when i get into the higher gear, i'm somewhat above 2500rpm. below 2400, the truck doesn't accelerate very well, and i have to down shift again.

it's kinda like a dump truck. but, that's why i did the SR5 gauge swap, so i could keep an eye on it.

i can't wait to regear. someday...
