83902, no torque below 4000rpms
Posted by weight_VEST, Dec-27-04 03:38 PM
my motor isn't making any torque below 4000rpms?! just wondering if the mods i made (AEM CAI, 2.5" exhuast piping w/ APEX'i N1 exhaust) are actually making my car slower. i need feedback, thanks.

Does it rev like it wants to go? What type of tranny you have?

either #1 buy a m/t to swap in and all the wires and ECU then that cuts about a second off ur 1/4mile
#2 if u don't want to hassle with it, take ur mods off this one.. and buy a manual and then put them on ur faster m/t version of a slow n/t (don't worry im still n/t and i know my car is still slow)

Are you saying you had torque before? If so, I would agree with maybe no tracton or are you low on tranny fluid and the torque converter is working properly. I had that happen in my truck. Tranny fluid was low, seemed like I had no ass in it. Then again, I dont know if this works the same way. Maybe a clogged cat. Like totaleklipse97 said, it could be 100's of reasons.

why do u say it's not making any torque??? Is it because it's SLOW?? Nah that's just because it's a 3000lb fatass with a severe lack of power. If you want help you gotta give us more info. Are you a 5-spd or a/t. What kinda of tires are u using, maybe u just aren't getting traction and don't know it. Could be 100's of reasons.
