honestly i listen to shift in my cars but my dad is driving my talon for now until he can get a car descent on gas but he cant listen to shift because the cars a lil out of the norm for him.what rpm should i tell him to shift? thanks jay
oh the cars a 91 talon

 

tell him to redline it every time......no j/k i would say aroun 4000-5000

 

Fuck that, stay half throttle and at around 3500 or less...

 

or you can do that...not going to hurt anything thing as long as he is not bouncing off the red line

 

well if he's driving it normally i say shift at like 3500 at the most just half throttling it. Why shift at 4 or 5 unless you like wasting gas

 

when im normally driving, i shift at 3k other than that, 6 or so if im racing, maybe 7

 

I shift between 2k and 3k @ 20% - 30% throttle (unless I'm in a hurry or having some fun).

 

ok thanks for the help guys.

 

I shift at 3500-4k with around 50 percent throttle unless I'm stuck in traffic or have a reason to drive really slowly. Driving a 7.8:1 turbo car at 2k rpm out of boost defeats the purpose of having a modified sports car, in my opinion. I like having good acceleration around town and I don't really mind a small penalty in gas mileage.

 

i agree but its my dad hes 50 and has a caddy seville which sucks on gas lol.hes not used to these cars.
