Look for flats_arm in the ini file and change the 5000.0 for 6500.0 and you'll be able to arm up until 6500RPM.

Do you really need to?

This would imply that you are engaging launch control at up to 6000rpm?

The flat shift arming limit is so the code can distinguish launch and flat shift.

In my car I edge forwards to the startline with <1200rpm, depress the clutch which operates the launch switch. The code checks my rpm, find it is way below the arming limit and applies the launch options. I then press the throttle and the revs get held at the launch limit. I then launch.
When I come to change gear at ~6000rpm I press the clutch, the rpms are way about my arming limit and so the flat shift limits are applied.

i neither see the need for an arming value over 6000... even if the ecu goes into flatshift if you take your foot out of the throttle between gears you wont hear any bangs.. However whats the point of having a limit in the setting?
