The Dedenbear CO2 Shifter with integrated RPM switch is purpose-built for serious drag racers who demand sub-millisecond shift response. Designed for NHRA and IHRA competition vehicles, this pneumatic shifter eliminates missed gears by using compressed CO2 to fire positive shifts at a precise RPM threshold you set yourself.

Housed in a billet aluminum chassis, the unit combines a high-flow CO2 solenoid with an adjustable electronic RPM window switch. The solenoid operates at 100–150 psi CO2 pressure, while the RPM switch features a wide adjustment range so you can dial in the perfect shift point for your powerband. The compact form factor mounts easily to the shifter base or trans tunnel.

Plumb your onboard CO2 bottle to the solenoid, wire the RPM switch to your tach signal and 12V power, and set your shift point with the integrated dial. The result is dead-consistent, hands-free upshifts that let you focus on the tree and the stripe — no more missed shifts costing you ET.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the Dedenbear shifter work with my automatic transmission in my truck or muscle car?

The Dedenbear shifter is designed to work with most automatic transmission applications, but specific adapter kits may be required depending on your vehicle. It features a sturdy mechanism built to handle high-horsepower builds and daily driving alike. Many Dedenbear shifters include adjustable stops and neutral safety switch provisions for easy installation. Check the product notes for transmission model compatibility before ordering.

How difficult is it to install a Dedenbear shifter in my vehicle at home?

Installing a Dedenbear shifter is a straightforward project for anyone with basic mechanical skills and hand tools. The kit typically includes the shifter mechanism, mounting hardware, and installation instructions. You should budget about two to three hours for the job depending on your vehicle's interior layout. For automatic transmission applications you will also need to adjust the shift cable or linkage after installation.

Can I use a Dedenbear shifter for both street driving and track racing applications?

Absolutely, Dedenbear shifters are built for dual-purpose use on the street and at the track. The mechanism provides positive gear engagement with a short throw action that works well in both environments. For automatic transmission vehicles, many models feature a reverse lockout and gate pattern that prevents accidental mis-shifts. The robust construction handles the abuse of competitive racing while remaining smooth enough for daily commutes.

What does the Dedenbear shifter kit include and do I need to buy any extra parts?

The Dedenbear shifter kit includes the main shifter assembly, mounting bracket, hardware, and basic installation instructions. For automatic transmission vehicles you may need a separate shift cable kit or transmission adapter depending on your specific setup. Some Dedenbear models also require a console plate or boot if you are replacing a factory shifter. Review the included components list on the product page for full details.

How does the Dedenbear shifter improve shift performance compared to a stock shifter?

The Dedenbear shifter reduces throw distance and eliminates the vague sloppy feel of factory shifters. For automatic transmission vehicles the precision-machined components provide a crisp positive engagement into each gear. This results in faster more consistent shifts during spirited driving or racing. The improved linkage design also reduces wear on your transmission over time by ensuring complete gear engagement. Regular maintenance after installation will extend the service life of the component.
