<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (SuPaDuPa)</div><div class='quotemain'>I find if you let your foot off the gas and tramp it again just before the shift it will also shift harder than normal...thats what i do with my automatic when i drag race....also i just sit at the start line and floor it on the last green light</div>

I dont know...... sound like bad to tranny, and i thnk that maybe i lose time doing that... but its just a guess.... i have never tried that before.....

would you have to modify your ECU when getting one of these babies fixed up? i mean, a powerchip, or some other form of modification?

well usually when I drive an automatic I just start it with a key.... just like when I drive manuals. I'm sure you'll catch onto it quick. laugh.gif

hehe, anyways to reiterate, DON'T nuetral drop it, a guy I went to school with got run over by his own car because of doing that..... yes, by his own car... broke both legs. 8O

sport shifting your auto is slower than letting it shift itself? are you sure? i've always heard that it is way slower to let it shift itself

I heard that a header 4-1 will help the automatic engine to go a little fasteer

Try to take time between shifting and no shifting..... and you will experience by yourself wich one is better.


Speedblind gave you a nice list.... a little expensive, but really works
