I threw in the special "blurry movie" feature for free because I like you guys so much.

Before someone says anything about my car slipping from 1st to 2nd..... it's not. You can acutally hear the valvebody recalibration make the car shift harder from 1st to 2nd.

File is 539,347 bytes...
Click clicky...

You might have to wait a while for Geocities to do its stuff... they seem to be slow today.

Get some HID pics up Hogan! How many HID kits do you have again? Maybe pics will spark a sudden spike in demand.

I can hear it slam into 2nd gear faster. Sounds like it shifts faster than mine. Mine lags for a couple of rpm's then I can feel the ecu cutting back power and then shift to make it smoother. It sucks! I really need a new Tcm.

Thanks Kev, now I know how your exhaust sounds like. It sounds great!

I would hope it shifts faster than yours (note: vb recal). The sounds you hear (with windows up) are from the Stillen y pipe, Stillen muffler, and Place Racing CAI.

At the risk of sounding like a jerk........

I swear my VG auto shifts as fast as that..if not faster at WOT. 2nd to 3rd is even faster as the difference in gear size is less.

Now....I know its pretty crazy to just listen to that clip and make that assesment but really...I have a cone intake and you can just hear it very quickly shift.


One other note as I type this. My vg makes tons LESS torque at 6k than your vq. My engine is starting to slow down while yours is racing to redline. Its like when you hold a gear(say 2nd) a constant throttle position......the engine will rev but start to peter out....then if you pop it in D it will shift quickly. Make sense?

I agree that the clip makes it sound like it's slipping, which I stated in the first post. I don't know why the mpeg does this, but rest assure that it doesn't shift like how it sounds.

Not sure who you're directing your comment to, but hopefully it'll be sometime this week.

-Holy Harmonic Resonance
Actually, it's loud at that range in all gears. VERY, VERY addiciting. VVVVRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!!!
