Default Quick question triptronic

So the other day, i was using the Triptronic, and i noticed that when i push it hard
The computer will shift on its own at 6800 rpm.
Why wont it let me take it to redline?
Just curious.

Exactly, thats the point of having a tip. I dont mind it shifting on it own but i just wish we could rev a bit higher. Not Triptronic but Tiptronic, just lettin you knwo incase you visit anymore forums, they will taunt you for saying it that way.

Get a TIP Chip, it will let you get to redline. Also make sure you don't go all the way to the floor, there is 100% throttle, then past that is the "kick down"
Even in TIP mode it will down shift on you.

If the trans does go into a chipped car redline, it will put the trans in limp mode till you shut the car off.
