Cheap Performance Idea for Max's W/O VI

since hte max makes 190 hp at 5500rpm it is useless to go to 6+(unless u have MEVI) so i was thinking since we have a stopper under hte gas pedal we could put washers under the stopper until it raises enough to hit 5500rpm when pressed all hte way ---thus we shift at max hp peak

it is just an idea i do not know if it will work but its worth a try

um, no. you still want to go above 5500 so that when you shift it will leave you in the power band. if you shift too low, your next shift will end up to low in the power band.

Why would you want to keep the engine from going WOT whenever you wanted? That would cut power across the entire RPM range.

That's about as useful as putting sand bags in your trunk for better weight distribution. Bahahahahaha.
