so would an automatic at full throttle shift at 5200 or 6000?? also, with a 5 speed, would you do the 1/4 mile faster shifting at 5200, or 6000? im guessing 5200, but i'd feel alot better if someone could back that up....

I WILL.....Shift at 5000, the tourque curve starts to cut off at about 5000-5200. i would shift there. at 6000 the torque is not there. Thats what i think.

finally someone with an answer, yeah thats what i thought, you can actually feel when it starts "losing torque" (or however you'd say it), right around 3000 it starts to throw you back in your seat a little bit, and right around 5200 it loses that "throwbackness"
still the part i wanna know the most, does an automatic at full throttle shift at 5200 or 6000?
