low speed, high rpm
alright so i got my ls/vtec on the road in my eg, this is my setup
b18a block SI head fidanza lightened flywheel skunk 2 throttle body t3/t4 57 trim turbo JE pistons 9:1 eagle rods S80 (s4c) tranny anyways, i will be cruising around, and if im going 55 in 5th gear, it sounds like the motor is going about 100, i dont know what it is, is it the tranny? cause it seems like i have to shift at about 2500 RPM, barely any time for the turbo to spool, ill be going 35-40 and ill have to be in 5th gear, is it cause the flywheel is too light? or the tranny? what, i dont get it at all |
Re: low speed, high rpm
wtf are you talking about?
is it a noise that makes you think something is going 100mph? |
Re: low speed, high rpm
Clutch is slipping and youre actually cruising at 8k. ;)

Re: low speed, high rpm
no, its not like a clink, clunk, woosh noise, its the rev of the motor noise, the motor sounds like its revving high and fast but im only at like 3k and going 55-60 in 5th

Re: low speed, high rpm
yea but if its showing 3k and you say it sounds like its going faster thats got nothing to do with the trans. you sure the tach is working right?...or maybe you are imagining things and everything is fine, which i bet is the case

Re: low speed, high rpm

Re: low speed, high rpm
dont be scared just rev it up some more and see if anything cuts out or if its still just reving higher. maybe your intakes upside down....sarcasm. but ya i would just take it up more. i bet your hearing the turbo starting to spool so you ---- your pants.
