23435, I need to be faster on my lanch?
Posted by black_eclipse_95, May-20-02 04:35 AM
I can't stand this automatic any longer. Anyone out there with a 5 speed tranny they want to sale? Or what can I do to get a quicker lanch off the line. This thing suck up until 3500 rpm's. I am getting Nitrous but is there anything else that I can do with this thing for the lanch.

power brake........you hold the brake in while revving it to 2000-2500, then let go of brake and floor it.

leave it in 1 it will shift automatically up to 4th, lets you bounce right off the limiter. Scared my the first time , I thought it wasnt going to shift. and supposedly the auto shifts faster in 1 and 2 then if you leave it in D, get a skift kit they are like 30 bucks plus maybe 100 for install, makes for nice crisp shifts
