Just so you guys know doing this is SUPER fun but it is extremely hard on your transmission, specifically the transfer case. On a stock-ish evo I'm pretty sure it'd take it for a while, but I know a guy with a ~550whp (mustang) VR4 who grenades his transfer case whenever he starts doing this. He's on his 4th one I believe

So just a heads up, its fun, but might be worth it to learn how to shift faster boost recovery is pretty quick on most of the turbos on the market now.

 

I don't think you understand the concept.

This is much EASIER on the transmission. It basically rev matches the next upshift to reduce stress on the transmission.

he obviously doesnt understand the concept because i personally owned a 92 galant vr4 with 57 trim at 30psi did nlts daily on a hwy pull and at the track and had not one problem...

 

I was just about to ask how the previous poster arrived at that conclusion....

 

Yes this is good. I'm getting an 05'.
And I plan on being anyone's test mule.

 

good man

 

*15 of course. It seems to be the test rom for all new things!

Bah.

Gotta try to one-up you guys on this: $50 Paypal donation to whoever gets this working on 97470001

Hopefully this incentive works, unless you guys gang up and pool for the *15s to be done first :P

 

ok - now regarding the speed condition... the problem is if you wheelspin you speed will be much higher than in reality - this will be worsened if you slip the clutch...

not sure the best way to do this yet...

 

I don't think wheelspin will be an issue, because if you do get wheelspin, then the NLTS rev limiter will kick in (depending on what speed you set it to) and help reduce it.

It may actually be a good thing to help control traction.

For $50 ill send you a video of me no lift shifting without hitting rev limiter and not touching the ecu!! Why are you guys all horny over doing this? Why not just learn to shift faster? It seems like alot of work for what people are already doing?? Im just lost to why this is so cool...

 

How many people don't understand this concept?

If you are doing NLTS without a rev limiter on clutch in, then your basically launching the car again in every gear. Some people don't like the stress on their clutch and drivetrain.

NLTS the proper way with a rev limiter will help match the shift points much better, and ideally have 0 stress on the clutch and drivetrain and be in a nice sweet spot for the next gear.

If you have ever done NLTS this way you would know what I mean. It is the smoothest, easiest WOT shifting you will ever experience.


Eric

 

Exactly what do you run in the quarter...
Where are you shifting. And what are you making for power...

This could easily distinguish between why you think its so easy, and the rest of us are seeing it as an asset.

Point: I can NLTS the **** out of my prism. You can't even hear the gear change. And it has a truck-esk throw. But the DSM doesn't always enjoy going into gear at 8k+ no matter how quickly I try to jam it in. That and add in wheel spin from high powered cars and those gears come at you faster than you can react. Period.

In this situation having the nlts/shift limit prevents unneeded cerebral function, while focusing more on anticipating the gear change and hitting it cleanly.

And faster times.

Why stand in the way of progress.

 

That prety much saved me a response on the same note. At 7500 rpms, let's just say I'd rather have a little bit of insurance in case of a bad shift, and rather be spending time thinking of the way I am going to take the corner over shifting precision.

Yeah, I have motor skills issues

 

I'm not reading three pages of this. Yes, it's possible.
