Does the 6th gen celica have it? My friend explained what it is and people say his Mitsubishi GSX doesn't have it because it is AWD, yet I thought GT4 has it.
I have noticed when I take a corner in 2nd and punch it, it will rev as if it were two step without actually redlining. Bounces around as if there were some type of rev limiter preventing redline. So I dunno. I don't even know the benefit of two step. Unless a car had serious HP, I wouldn't really see a point at launching a car using this "Two Step", as I can hear it in some cars at a starting line, when some of them normally (if drag racing for time on a track) are better off at a lower RPM. Or so I think. I dunno, and you know what? I don't care if I sound like an idiot right now. I am begging to be educated here! -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204

Interesting one this...not quite sure what "2 step" is.
What I do know is, a standard GT4 has both boost cut and fuel cut. These are predefined saftey settings in the ECU. However, what you can get is a rev limiter which basically cuts the ignition. See Bee*R Rev Limiter/Power Builder AFAIK this is used in turbo drag cars to allow turbo spool up (without blowing your engine up) for a better launch. A tell tale sign that a car has a rev limiter fitted is popping, banging and flames spitting out the back of the exhaust on high revs. I may of course be completely off the beaten track |
