so guys would you agree that i should shift at 6600 rpms to get maximum power????
im a lil confused here because some guy on this forum said my peak would be around 7500 with my mods.

evil guy
thanks dude! that was a cool site. i dont have exact numbers from a dyno but it lets you put a good guess in there.
i think i have been taking my rpms to high. when i race i shift after 7000 rpms in each gear. maybe a little sooner would be more beneficial. maybe like 6200 rpms.
its suck that there's no place to run, legal that is. we really need a 1/4 mile track here in miami. so i can finally get some good experience!

got the 3rd gen. out the shop
we drove her around sat. and man am i in for it. my 88TII wont stand a freakin chance. i never drove a 3rd gen. with a street port and new motor.
its unbelievable how much power 3rd gen's have. freakin car is scary!
the pull down low puts my TII to shame. i think im gonna start planin on the 3rd gen. fund soon!
its gonna be fun to open her up once we break her in!
