I want everyone's opinions on this one, I know there are a lot of boosted 5sfe and 7afe around here, and also non-boosted ones. But, seriously, is it just me or is the fe pretty much useless at top end. Well, I went to the local track and raced against an integra gs-r with i/h/e, i have the 7afe also with i/h/e, i beat him up to 3/4 of the way there, and the last quarter, he caught up to me, i guess his vtak kicked in y0. (Don't worry, his engine is not healthy at all and he couldn't hook.) But, pretty much, his top end just raped me. This got me thinking, not only this race, but a lot of races that i've done, my 7a pretty much craps out around 5-6k rpms after 1st gear. Is this just me or is anyone else experiencing this? 5sfe, 3sfe, 7afe, whatever ya got, discuss!
