i was using the steptronic in city and then i went to freeway and realized that it won't go in overdrive if its in steptronic. reason is, usually in D, i am doing 75mph at 2900 rpm, with 5M in steptronic it was a little over 3k rpm. Is there no way to make it go in overdrive?

i did end up putting in D to get better mileage and lower rpm as it was feeling strained. Any suggestions?

Which HPS did you go with? it looks like the competition series is nice so you can adjust the height on the tube as well. and were the rear bags from hps also?
