I am waiting to here back from James to see what he thinks. If he has the answer, I will test the car this weekend at Epping. If that is not the solution, I will get it dynotuned by Horsepower by Herman next spring.

any relation to Herman Munster? Muster had a kick ass car.

You won't loose a bunch of momentum in a split sec. If that were the case then you don't need to use your brakes ever.

If you can gain ET and MPH through powershifting, I would be willing to bet I am losing ET and MPH with this problem.

 

[BadVoodoo]

buy your own for $4-5 at the food stand.

Hell no!! That's a gallon+ of gas!!!

 

[gaslight]

not that much. Power shifting might give you a tenth or 2.
Just face it. Your car is a TURD

 

[BadVoodoo]

I hate you.

 

[gaslight]

Turd

 

[gaslight]

You need some V-Tec

 

[BadVoodoo]

Shut up!!!!

 

[BadVoodoo]

Screw you guys, i'm going home!

 

[gaslight]

Go get F'ed in the A

Maybe its because you car sucks at producing TORQUE

If that were the case the engine would hit the rev limiter real quick and should be noticeable.

thats true

And yes Mike will loose some velocity with a hesitation between shifts, as the the nose of the car should drop some if there is a hesitation. however the momentum loss will be very slight.

Honestly Mike, something is certainly amiss...i make 100 less RWHP and we are trapping close to the same.

I just hope it isn't anything major

 

[gaslight]

whats the matter Mike ?

the last guy i heard talking about a hesition between shifts has a 2v GT and he ended up bending a rod

I still say its too many double or triple cheeseburger.

YOu trying to open up a wound and throw salt in it?

Mike this is straight from Ken C at KB

What was causing the hesitation is exactly what I said it was - a high fuel pressure spike at the shifts, then an extreme drop in fuel pressure causing a lean spike. The EEC tries to correct for it, but it's too slow (in terms of computing time) to cure it, hence, a hesitation occurs.

It has NOTHING to do with tip-in spark retard, slipping clutches, belts, etc.. After trying several options with the BAP, I found nothing would pass the Kenne Bell standard for a total "cure". No time delay circuit, adjustment to the boost switch, etc. would make the problem "disappear" completely. We could have probably passed off one of these methods, but it just was not acceptable. After many dyno and street pulls, the correction was found possible within the tune.

Hell, I made my numbers without sticky tires, leaving at idle, no powershifting and a bunch of weight in the car.

Nope....damn you 2 tore up that lst page, whores!
