Full bolt on's Was wondering where do you guys feel the most pull/power 1st 2nd or 3rd gear? Also with what transmission |
1st is the best for me... t56... it might be due to the fact that i put some new tires on too when i did my bolt ons so it significantly increased the use of 1st :nod: |
1st and 2nd for me. |
All depends on traction really, if you can hook in first of course it's going to feel faster. |
Once I would get rollin, she'd really open up in 2nd. |
when my car was stock, 3rd and 4th pulled really good.....it's under the knife now....i can wait to see what it's like when the mods in my sig are done |
oh yeah, 4L60E |
Second and Third are a close tie for me. I Voted third. 65 rolls on the HW in third gear at 4k rpm will snap ya alright! :devil: Had a good couple pulls this weekend in second though. Was TRYING to feel how it pressed me into the seat at a 3500rpm stab in second shifting to third and pulling to 6500. BUILT T56 with NT05's also.. :D

On my a4 3.23s .. I feel 2nd pull more.. maybe because I have a big delay once going from 2-3rd.. once in 3rd i don't feel it as much as 1st or 2nd. I think i need a converter and a built trans 1-2 feels extremely short.. people ask me if have 3.73s |

I'm guessing you're talking about the car in your sig? There's a hell of a difference between a H/C car and a bolt-on car. I'm sure you don't get any traction in 1st, but in my little bolt-on car with the suspension setup right and some sticky tires, 1st gear pulls like crazy (especially with 4.11's) When I was all bolt-ons though, I think third still felt fast, but second may have been the better gear. And yeah, I get traction in first. NT05s! :D And the roads here in CT are pretty clean from all the rain and salt during the winter.. No real oil buildup. |
^^ Still it must feel way short with all the goods :) |

4.10 T65 2nd cuz i don't have any traction on the first gear ! |
