This is why I got my tune from a reputable tuner. I know he knows better than I do so let him do his thing.

Each car will be a little different. There's no arbitrary number. It should just barely bark at WOT 1-2 wth a stock trans (my opinion).

2. WOT - Gear shift...What is this???

These are the speeds at which the car will shift. You must calculate your speed vs RPM to know what this speed it. Most tuners have the car set to shift somewhere from 6200-6500. If you have miles on the car, decrease this a bit. I'll attach a link to an Excel sheet to calc your speed vs RPM

Thanks for the help...

You'll need your revs/mile for tires. Stock rears is 724. You'll also need your rear gear ratio.
