guys can someone expand on this as I have noticed this in the new f6

my understanding is that there is a fuel cut off under power between auto changes?

Keep hard on the gas and the fuel cut produces a satisfying “whump” from the tailpipe as the ‘box swaps ratios during gearchanges.

thanks

Ive seen this happen on the Fg xr6t when he was belting it through the gears. Left a nice black puff out the exhausts between shifts, it was stock standard

This is all completely normal and designed to reduce torque on shifts to protect the gearbox. Not really sure how it works, spark retard or fuel cut. Sounds great in my opinion and is even louder with more power.

It cuts the spark: when using over 75% throttle in full auto, 50% throttle in performance (I think...thereabouts), and pretty much all the time in manual mode.

Not fuel cut - that wouldn't be a good thing under WOT :ermm:

It was interesting watching episode 8 of Oz garage.

Have tuners worked out how to remove the torque reduction yet on FPV fg f6 yet as my car is dissapointing to drive and power is being cut big time when accelerating due to this.

There is something different between the fg f6 and xr6 turbo, as my tuner can fix it on the xr6s but not on the f6 yet.

I heard this on my uncle new G6ET 2 weeks ago I thought at the time that's not right I thought he broke traction when changing gears? TC kicking in maybe? It would only be a fly sh*t in time you loose spark and I gues a fly sh*t in unused fuel out the rear just the same why to save gearbox? a assume the 270kw BF f6 didnt do it why now.
