i just wanna know if its ok to engine brake once in a while after going at a high speed? i use the heel-toe technique..

 

Yes, you'll be fine. I heel-and-toe all the time when taking cruises through twisty roads or even just around town for fun (not at very high revs for the latter). Just make sure your technique is good and you're not shocking the engine by popping out the clutch when it's not rev-matched.

 

I engine brake all the time. As long as it's done correctly, you will be fine and it will make you a better driver.

 

If anything its your clutch taking the abuse, your engine is more than capable of it

 

are you talking about decelerating like 4-3, 3-2? if so then i do it everyday

 

Manual states to always engine brake, because it's "illegal in many states" to coast with the car in nuetral

 

ill be damned...i learned something today

 

i would not use engine breaking,its not good for your engine,it puts extra stress on your engine,just use hee; and toe method its very easy and fun

 

Do it every day, on both EVO's,

try to rev match to help clutch life

 

more importantly, neutral is a gear but not designed for coasting, you can hurt your trans by driving at speed in neutral..... no crap

 

wtf? heel toe is engine braking.

 

Clarify this, if nothing is engaged why would this hurt? Just asking

 

Rev match to help clutch life? Pardon me for not knowing the term.

And heel-toe?

 

sorry im a newb whats heel and toe......i drive automatics lol

 

nothing wrong. it actually sounds good...

but with the illegal coast thing. where can i find that???? very interesting
