Redling Problems - Automatic

A few months ago I replaced the engine and turbo's. I got the rebuilt turbo's from the Internet and had AIM Tuning check them out prior to installing the new engine. They spool up quicker and smoother than the original stock units. Until the new engine and turbo's were installed, and if the car was in Drive, the tranny would shift at 6200 - 6500 RPM no matter how much I pushed the accelerator. Now, the over-rev ping sounds as the new turbo's appear to spool up quicker than the tranny's ECU (or engine's ECU) can respond. Anyone have this problem?

When is it actually shifting? Isn't redline on the autos 7k rpm? On the manuals, the redline buzzer sounds at 7500 rpm, even though the redline is 8k rpm. Maybe there's a similar setup for the autos.

The redline is 7000 for the automatic. It's not shifting at 7000, but somewhere higher. I don't know the exact RPM's because I lift when I hear the ping. I'm guessing it will shift between 7500 and 8000 RPM, which is too much.
