How can I change my shift points?

I am wondering how I change my shift points. I know there is a "manumatic" mod that ipt has and ebay has, but it says not to use them on stock trannys. is this true? I'll eventually build my tranny up, but, being the poor college boy that I am, I need something else. I am looking into a bigger turbo with more top end than an evo3, but why should I go bigger if I can't take full advantage of the power band? Any and all comments would help. Thanks

By the way, my goal is to have an 11 second car next season. I will be getting a 1g head with a fresh rebuild with 264/272 cams here soon as well. Thanks again.

converter doesn't change shift points. If you want to change the TCU shift points and have an EPROM TCU there is a person on here who does chips for them

High Psi's mod is super cool and definitely the way to go if you can locate the chipped TCU.

Other than that you'd need to do a full pressure manual shift box, shift it yourself and probably get within 100rpm of the shift point you want. My buddy's shifts are pretty instant but you have to shift every gear manually unlike High Psi's mod.
