And don't rev your LS1 to 7k unless you have upgraded rod bolts or upgraded rods. If you do that too many times you will most likely end up with a rod hanging out the side of the block. I would keep it down to 6700-6800 max

Oh that's cool, are there many F body's in Kuwait or is it kinda rare to have one?

Well belive me, you'll find what ever car you want in Kuwait..
We do have many f body's out there.. but it's too rare to find a stock one,,
I was just testing the engine after installing it so that's why I rev to 7k. So I'll never do that again.
I also have an 2000 427 trans am so all street kills will be on the WS6.

Nothing happened, that's how an A4 is supposed to perform.
If you're in 1 at 5000rpm with your foot on the gas and you put it in 2nd, it won't shift to the next gear because the computer shift tables see a high throttle position at which point it will only shift at a high rpm. But if you lift your foot of the throttle, the computer shift tables see a low throttle position, which immediately causes it to shift since it shifts much sooner at low throttle.

I just bought a 2000 camaro from a friend..
Its an A4 which he rebuilt it 2 months ago.
It is an stock car,
the car drives nice at "D" and the shifting are perfect..
but the problem starts when I down shift it to "1" or "2" or the "3rd"
Let's suppose I downshifted the gearing at 1 and I accelerate at the "full throttle"...
Suddenly my RPM reached 5k and I would like to shift to 2nd, so when I move the shifter to position "2", The car simply don't shifts with me then hits 7k!
the only way that the car shifts is to "Release the throttle" then the car will shifts to the 2nd gear.
Exactly the way you would drive a Manual car but with out a clutch pedal!
The other problem , there is no Fuc*ing brakes when the car at 1-3 gearings at "manually shiftings"!! , the car slides when I push the brake pedal it's like the ABS not working!
I almost had an accident when I was at 120mph "3rd gear" and realised there's a traffic so I braked and the braked where not holding.. I had to side-brake to make the car stop -.-
so the tires are fuc*ed up now they have a FLAT surface "semi circle like"
but the brakes are all good when they're at D position! My car had really became drunk right now....
Please tell my what is happening!

If you are at the drag strip you will run faster if it is tuned right and you just leave it in drive. I used to shift mine at the track and the car was faster letting it shift itself.
