My usual driving is shifting by about 2800 RPM or so, even less if im being lazy.
Of course I through in some WOT action and some quick hand/arm coordination but tonight... ahhh, tonight was quite the ear pleaser.
I was turning onto a road, I was in 3rd gear... I just started easing into the throttle but stopped right under 3/4 throttle and just let the motor keep winding out till about 4800 RPM
Did it again on the return trip with the window down next to a wall (great resonance, lol) and let it roll right around 3/4 throttle to about 5400 RPM, and shift.
It felt smooth as butter and like it was just as content spinning over 5k as it is spinning 2k... teh 4.6 is definatly smooth.
It really sounds alot different than going WOT and hammering through the gears. It was a great Nascar winding out around the track sound.
If only I had a 4v I could keep the fun going, lol.
