Doesn't matter. Any way you think is best. My WRX and buick I was at 2000 rpm and went for it like a dyno run. The WRX I think was all 3rd. The GS was 2nd into 3rd.

Whenever i get a chance, I'm going to give it a shot both starting in second and in third. My money says I'll be faster starting in third rather than shifting, but I've got more power down low than a NA Z.

I was already wondering this as well. I have to agree I think starting in 3rd will be faster. Sucks we will still have to hit 4th for that last 5mph

Not exactly what your looking for but I had this video from a couple weeks ago. 60-120 going up a slight hill. Probably a 3% grade or so. Boost is right around 8PSI. I will try and go out tonight and get some more video on flat ground

my car back with 60hp less than it makes now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rPmJC9WYQI
you can notice how its struggling to climb the last few hundred RPM. Thats where i made most of my extra power when I tuned it again later. I added a lot of timing up top and it really climbed.

an older video... this vid sucks, but since the camera was mounted to the car, i had both hands, and you can see/hear how i powershift it when im full throttle (i didnt on the first shift for some reason). I dont ever let off when shifting under full throttle. never had problem, original trans. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZUBgVFIFus
funny as hell.. i went forever without putting the velcro behind my boost controller. its in the cubby. if you watch carefully, you can see it fall out and swing by its wire from the first shift lol.

But you can run through the gears, whatever's faster. 2nd at 20mph will be fine then redline it into 3rd and 4th if need be.

Well, I will fill it out with the numbers it was making when the video was recorded. I didnt get any video this year after retuning it to higher power.
phunk, 2009, Nissan, 370z, Stock weight plus TT parts, 6 Cyl, Twin Turbo, 8 PSI, E85, 524RWHP, 401RWTQ, 0.0 1/4, 0.0 ET, 0.0 1/4MPH, 4.3~ 50-100. I have taken it to the track but I ran a very painful and miserable 11.6 just fighting traction. It can be listed if you want a real world example of how useless the power is in the Z without slicks. No launching allowed from this car. Vehicle: 2009 370z Motor: Stock Turbo: Greddy TT Boost: 9si (Current) Transmission: 6MT Redline: 7200, Stock Upgrades: Modified Greddy TT w/ Tial BOVs and MVS wastegates Greddy Dual 2.75" exhaust ID1000 Injectors Aeromotive 340 pump with CJM Install Kit CJM Stage 1 prototype fuel system OS Giken Twin Clutch with RJM pedal and Zspd CSC Custom Oil Cooler Kit, Mocal Plate, Earls Core Daily driven, and constantly beat on!! Coming up on 60,000 miles. Trouble free, no maintenance. The only thing the car has ever needed was diff mounts. Custom UpRev tune by me Weight: Stock + at least 50lb for the TT 50-100MPH: 4.3~[/QUOTE] Quote:
