Man you talking some stuff I've never even heard of, you mean to tell me just by releasing the O/D button their car kicked up another 10mph on the top end.
Not Dissin but that sounds a lil fishy, but I'll check with the fellaz on the .org to see what they have to say, they usually would know, they have a lot of knowledge on that forum, not that this one doesn't.

I don't think taking the O/D does that much for your car except as I stated before that it is automatically set-up on our cars to help us save gas when we are just driving normal.
You remove the O/D (economy mode) and your car rips because the tranny selects third gear where there's a lot of torque.
I could be wrong though, I'm not an auto expert but just removing the O/D in my car has never netted me 10 mph on my but then again my rev limiter is still in place.
Like I said, I'll ask the guys on the org and get back to you.
