once again...adding shift buttons to a car without
I posted about this awhile back, but it turned out the switch was the problem
This time, i have working performance and normal shift buttons, and darned if i can't tell any difference between the two modes. The leds will change between the two modes, but i watch the tach and can't tell any difference. It definitely still shifts at 5500 WOT in both modes, and i can't feel any lowered shift points in normal mode during light and heavy acceleration. (not that this is really a problem...i bought the buttons to have more buttons to push and lights to light)

I don't have them, and I wouldn't want them, unless i had a PCM with a higher then stock Shift point for the performance setting.
Remember Performance is the same as cars without it, "Normal" is just dumbed down.

However the lighting is on and off. Might need to check the harness, as I soldered the connections.. :?
1993SLE has a center console....
