first time hitting redline in 3rd gear today (auto)
....it makes me wanna get a manual so I have an extra gear to wind out. I was going 80 mph when I punched it and turned off the O/D button. Once it hit 5700 rpm.... WOW!! It's a totally different car, especially with the vq + injen screaming. It felt like the car had another surge of power as the VI kicked in... something I don't usually feel on the 1st and 2nd gears. This reminds me of that vid with pioneer (2k1) running the two 2k2's. Unfortunately I turned the O/D back on at the redline and the car shifted into its last gear.

slickrick: um, I believe I was going at 12x-ish mph by the time it redlined and the O/D button went off
battle: I finally understand that when this lease ends imma gonna get myself a used 5spd highway monster. The debut will have to wait, but at least i'll be manning the grill to feed you guys.
fstmax: I don't wanna run at 16.1 like that stock 5th gen last time. No mods makes me less willing to run

I still need to get my max up that fast! But I'm always worried about the police. Someday on a lonley highway or track I will.

dany: I'd like a 2k2, but a 2k-2k1 with y pipe and working MAF is more tempting to me.

Too scared to do that again, but at least it was broad daylight, no cars, two lane highway, open road ahead for about 10 miles. It pays to live in the middle of nowhere.

I know exactly what you mean my closest neighbor is half a mile away...lol. the hwy i live on has about a 2 mile straight, I love pushing my baby to its straightline limits there. And her twisty limits on the back roads of the hwy... theres a road named seven mile rd, its only about 5.8 miles long and the straitest strech is only 1/4 mile
