Default 6spd FI guys and no lift shifting (lingenfelter lnc-003)

Been looking at Lingenfelters LNC-003. i was curious if us 6spd guys can use this for no lift shifting at WOT? it says it activates everytime you depress the clutch so im just thinking you could wire the secondary rpm limit to just past the desired shift point to keep the rpms from shooting up too high and it should also make shifting easier by taking the load off

i know n2mb makes a WOT box that vette/stang guys like to use but its not available for fbodies

just looking for some opinions or experience from anyone who has used it

Not sure how much it would help. I've never had a problem no-lift shifting an M6 car.

i know you dont need something like this to no lift shift, but its definitely attractive to lighten the load on the drivetrain during the process. Helps incase of a screw up too. I figure for 200, its not a bad deal if it can make no lift shifting as easy as a regular shift.

Gotta be a reason its being incorporated into newer cars as a standard option, other than how awesome it sounds outside a vette

appreciate the insight though!

I am interested in this as well... I shift way too sloppy letting off the throttle and it kills my ET/MPH.. It would be nice to keep it on the floor, not to mention keeping the blower/intercooler spooled up instead of dumping it all thru the BOV.

From what I read, the lingenfelter box is supposed to be used with a faceplated tranny as well..not stock trannies... That's why I haven't pulled the trigger on it.

I agree, not really sure what it would be accomplishing. My right foot stays on the floor when I shift and I've never used one of those boxes.

It shouldn't make any difference if the tranny is faceplated or synchronized. Either way, you shouldn't shift either without the clutch and you don't need a special box to no-lift-shift. Just keep your right foot on the floor, stab the clutch, and bang the next gear.

the box that requires you to have a faceplated tranny is this one:

the one i have in mind is this one:
http://www.lingenfelter.com/mm5/merc...gory_Code=C163

it supposedly only cuts spark and leaves fuel alone (which is what makes it different from a stock rev limiter)

i wont argue that this way works. Ill also be honest in saying that my main interest in this is to help a trans survive at a level that is beyond its limits.

While the way you are talking about works, it doesnt mean that it isnt harder on parts. If installing it makes it easier on parts(mainly synchros) and even easier to hit the next gear, then why not? its not expensive.

i sound like i defending the box but in reality i just want to know if it will work the way im talking about. if im interpreting the description correctly then i will be trying it.

I have one. It works well. The hard part is fighting the urge to not lift. I need alot of work on it still. I only have a 1/8th mile so I dont get much practice.

awesome, i just wanted to know it worked. I thought that may be the hardest part too haha. Any chance you have/can get a video of it in use?

according to their site, no it wont work. they only have C5 vettes listed. Im assuming it has to do with the fact that our cars arent drive-by-wire.

it sounds like you are lifting on each shift from the videos?

Car moves out. did you keep it planted in those runs? i know the nose will dive when you hit the clutch but its hard to tell if you lift cus of how loud everything is.

I see what you're saying and, if it actually works the way they say it does, it would be a good investment.

On another note, is there a way to set a lower rpm on the two step for launching and only have it come on at the line and not while making shifts? I wouldn't think you'd want the limiter to be at 4500 or whatever you're launching at while you'retrying to shift.
