As for mashing the gas "BOOST" in gears 5Th thru 7Th is part of the reason I went with this Kit. The TQ is nothing like the Turbo Z's and our Tranny's for the most part should hold just fine with a proper "TUNE" as the Factory Specs are around 290TQ. My Z put down 426WHP & 328TQ. I have done pulls to 150MPH plus and she feels firm and steady as the Tranny pops into the next gear, almost feeling like a true manual with a conventional clutch. |
Cool! I didn't say we can't boost in those gears just that they get weaker as you go up. Don't know what speed it takes to wind out 7th gear in full boost but your tranny would be the least of your worries at that speed. haha
I'm just paranoid with the 7AT so I got the tune, valvebody upgrade and trans oil temp monitor. By the time i wind out 4th I'm already going too fast for comfort.
The factory torque specs are at the flywheel I believe, so your wheel torque could be 15% to 20% more at the flywheel. Don't quote me.
