....Because you can't flat change a manual XR6T.....

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Why not?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Yeah, why not?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

No reason why you cant jetute.

I thought about it a while back and started practicing.

The hurdle I had to get over was to train myself not to lift off the gas pedal at all when I clutch in.

I flat change now whenever I want with no probs.

Im pretty sure that Ive got it down so Im not bouncing off the rev limit also.

Now to practice this on the strip.

Back on topic: I dont think that flat changing will get you into 11's without huge power.

Regards,

Arthur

well done... and surely a there must a function in the capa software that can make the flat change a much refined function in the hands of a tuner who knows how to worktyhe function??

Well once clutch is done I'm going to give it a go with some sticky tyres. I think there are a few of us out there trying to get into the 11's now :D

roll ons are a drag race from a rolling start, ie going up the freeway, more of a real world drag.

flat changeing is when you change gears in a manual without backing of the throttle as you would normally do.

What would happen if you disconnected the switch on the clutch pedal? Ie so the computer didnt know that you had engaged the clutch. Could this allow the ECU to leave boost alone (and it would drop a bit anyway as you lift of the throttle?).

I have wondered about this before relating to the cruise control, ie if you are in 4th or 5th and want to change to maintain speed - then it would be good if the cruise control wasnt disabled as you change.

Anyway - what will happen if you disconnect this - and what are the side effects?

I think there is more to it than just the switch on the clutch. Possibly load and torque settings. Hopefully Martin or someone else with a better understanding of the edit could shed a little light on this. :thumbsup:

Geea. :innocent:

11.50....absolutely no chance with that power, sorry harsh but true. I've watched enough 11 second attempt to know that power isn't everything, but that simply isn't enough.
