185 pulley question

Has anyone with the LET 185 pulley tried running their car on a dyno or at the track in the winter mode? I'm just curious because it's been talked about on here many times how the power starts falling off near redline, but it's stronger on the low end. Would it be more beneficial to have it in winter mode so the shift comes before redline? I tried a low speed punch today in the winter mode with the ESP on, and hard through 2nd and had a real strong kick when it shifted to 3rd. Just wondering.....

Yep, Jerry put a 185 tune on it while the car was waiting for me to come pick it up.
