ah, I shift just before the rev limiter, which it just a little in the red,
drive it the way it is ment to be driven, like you stole it.

rev limiter on 94-98 is 5200 not 4750GREENBIOCH said:redline on pre-99's is 4750, our peak trq is at ~2800rpms and peak HP is at ~4000rpms, this is all according to factory specs. We can't even reach 5k rpms.

shift point on the AODE is 4500 on the 94-98. locked in second it can hit 5200
i shift at 6000 rev limit at 6500. but i have the mods to do it
Someone finally startsSpectorV said:yoru confused.... very confused..... just because the rev limiter is at 5200 on pre 99s does not mean you should shift there, the peak power for the motor is at 4750 which means you shift closer to that unless you simply like running slower times at the track and ragging on your motor for no real reason what so ever (unless you have a power adder or what not... but anywhere near stock with stock cam specs its worthless)
if you shift at 6k on a 99+ v6 you are again wasting your time 5500 is the max for 01+ to shift at for the best performance. you may can hold second a tad longer to help over the hump into 3rd.

i never said you should shift at 5200. all i said is factory rev limit is set at 5200 and shift points at 4500SpectorV said:yoru confused.... very confused..... just because the rev limiter is at 5200 on pre 99s does not mean you should shift there, the peak power for the motor is at 4750 which means you shift closer to that unless you simply like running slower times at the track and ragging on your motor for no real reason what so ever (unless you have a power adder or what not... but anywhere near stock with stock cam specs its worthless)
