sooo im goin down the street and this lil ford focus zx3 pulls up next to me... i think oh no not another one. so he revs i rev we go... i had him till he hit 3rd gear and i was just gettin out of second. then he pulled, he had me by a half a car length. but still if that 3rd gear had any power i would have beat him.... so do you guys know of anything at all that can cure this auto problem. besides a 5 speed swap?? PLEASE HELP MY BABY IS TO SLOW... maybe those cars are faster than i thought.

although torque is made by the power the gear ratios control howe efficiently the power is used. the manual is his best bet, since like Kwanza said the Auto only has 4 gears.
it's like going 1-2-4-5 or 1-2-3-5 but to make up for losing a gear they lengthen every gear. generally the higher the gear the more lengthening. A 5-speed would help your cause, but be careful to by one that the 7A can use efficiently. ie. i dont feel an e153 belongs w/ a 5S. it might slow it down -------------------- |
