the GAB has NOTHING to do with the shiftpoint (when the TCM sends the signal to upshift).
sounds like a TCM problem

ghetto air box
read the stickies for this and many other answers. this will make you look smarter because you wont ask pointless questions that people are sick of hearing. it will prevent you from getting flamed.

Like Soonerfan said, there is already a ton of information in the Stickied threads and you'll likely find many answers to your questions there, as well as learn more about the car.
