been dring my Z for almost a year...and ima tell ya 1st to 4th does help(city drivin)....however if u shift to 6th before 50-55 your doing more harm than good...unless u have a feather light foot and only care to gain 1mph every 5-10sec
than dont bother shiftin to 6th until 50-55...your pcm is determining throttle position(and Mass air), which at low low rpms(6th gear around 1200-1500) will demand alittle more fuel to compensate for the load....ask me how i know
