Pretty stupid to be shifting your auto like that anyway. It won't last long, and nitrous on top of it doesn't help any. If you wanna do some nonsense "auto-shifting" like that then I would get a tranny cooler.
It maybe stupid, but what other method would you like to prefer us to do it. Yeah it definently wont last long, but who cares. You gotta pay to play.
And for an admin, you talk a lot of crap for not actually "doing" anything. You bash on other people, but what experience do you have? Dont get me wrong... Im not trying to rebash you or whatever, but what gives you the right or what experience do you have, to telll other people that their techinque is stupid?
Although you maybe an admin, Im a small time guy who has the balls to try something new, and not stick to basic mods.
1. It's ALL about power to weight ratios. Along with gearing, that determines your track times.
2. You are at a disadvantage with gearing. Your 4 gears are not as efficient as any 5-gear setup.
3. An auto Accord with a 75 shot will not run a 13.9 1/4 mile.
4. Are you trying to say he might have missed a gear or two?
How 'hard' your nitrous kicks in is not a factor. It's not like it peaks at 150 shot then continues at a 75 shot.
And since you'll probably consider me part of the band-wagon now, I might as well indulge...
Your dyno chart seems a bit... inflated. 136whp, 127wtq. Those numbers are more than 15% higher than other automatic Accords with similar mods. Not to mention that nice little gear change that gave you a false peak reading at 6550rpm that looks to be an extra 10hp higher than the rest of the rpm band. Torque doesn't appear to have been affected. All that was beyond your control though. Not your fault. If that were the case though, your 183whp, 201wtq reading would be inflated as well.
The numbers just don't add up. Any plans to take her to the track? Maybe a video next time? I love seeing Accords whoopin up.
1. Nope wrong... You could have all the power and be light *** hell, with badass gearing, but with no traction your worthless, and being a crappy driver dosent help.
2.Wrong again, the 350z gearing ratios are just too long. But once it hits 5th gear, its a little shorter than previous gears. N/A wise the Z is at a disadvantage. Boost wise, long gears are good.
So to put in technichal terms with gearing ratio in advantages
Boost = Long Gears
N/A = Short Gears
3. Dont assume things, I never said that, But we will find out this upcoming Friday what it runs.
4. Nope, he hit every gear, just a terrible driver.
I dont consider anybody part of the band wagon, just people seem iffy on the subject at hand. If only I had use my camera too, I could prove it hands down.
On the nitrous kicking in, you gotta feel it to believe it, similar to boost, you want more....
Yeah I agree on the N/A run that the dyno showed was definently off, everyone one at the dyno agreed that the gear jumping caused the spike and caused a false reading. But for the nitrous runs those numbers are consistent.
