I'm wondering where do my other d16a6 brothers shift.

I go;

1. 5.75
2. 6
3. 6.245
4. 6

My engine is stock other then a CIA. Here is a pic just for S&G's.

 

i go..
1. 6800
2. 6300
3. 6300
4.6500

thats with basic bolt-ons..
car don't bounce till 7000 RPM.

 

I go;

1. 5.75
2. 6
3. 6.245
4. 6

you always shift this way??

When I get right foot happy I have no problem bringing it up to redline on my A6 and when I had an a6/y8 mini me I hit the rev limiter a couple of times on my 88-89 pg7 ecu.

 

you guys drive like this everywhere you go? because i usually shift no higher the 4500. I think right now with a d16a6, id rather be reliable than fast. but I may be wrong..

 

I run it at
1)7100
2)7100
3)6900
4)6500
I have a cam. Stupid rev limit

 

1. 7,000
2. 7,000
3. 6,500
4. 6,000

I hate winding the motor out at high speeds.

 

my buddy shifts his right before fuel cut at 7200rpm ish..

Pulls hard when it only weighs 1500lbs

I'm talking about when you race.

Wow and some of your d16a6's are still making power at 7,000 rpm with just bolt on's. Hummm... Does anyone have a stock d16a6 dino chart?

2:7200
3:6800

Ask and you shall recieve my SOHC brother -

 

I shift right at 7000 rpm when I race.

On the track I've chirped the tires in third a few times.
I've got a few modest bolt ons... Injen Shortram intake, Airmass 421 Compblu header, Cusco highflow Cat to custom 2 1/4" piping into a Dynomax Superturbo muff, B&M short throw, Royal Purple Oil and tranny fluid, and some shitty *** bald Falken Ziex tires aired at 16 lbs. That's all good enough for a 15.780 @ 85.71 MPH.

 

dr_latino999 you are my hero thank you very much.

Wow so our a6's realy do make power all the way up to and past red line!

Dr Latino is that %100 stock, and is that at the flywheel or at the tires?

 

haha! That's my dyno chart!!! I'm famous!

Back then it was bone stock with greddy mx exhaust, gutted cat (took the turbo off just before the dyno day...that's why the gutted cat was still in) and 1 step colder plugs (same idea, from the turbo)

Here's a pic of it that same exact dyno day.

 

It was at the wheels

 

1. 2000
2.2500
3.2000
4.skip
5. cruise this is my normal driving going .

 

SporkCRX, I found it one day looking for a "stock" D16A6 dyno. There was no name to it and the poster of it said that the cat was the only mod, nothing after that. What size exhaust is the Greddy for reference?

Unfortuanetly I am that way too, except when I feel the urge to pass, then it is 1-2 gears down and a run to redline

 

damn i didnt think alot people on this board have still rocking the A6 like i am

 

ahh i need take a picture of my engine bay lol

 

when I had my a6, just before the rev limitor. Bone stock A6 too

 

bone stock a6 in my 88 dx hatch just before rev limit damn dx no tach

 

Of the rev limiter everyday in 1st if im on it... Other then that I rest my foot on the gas and whenever it starts to run out of power at that TP, I shift.

 

2000 through every gear daily driving, until i get in a mood and its redline every gear.

 

My A6 pulls a lot stronger than my brother's Y8..

 

I shift at 1,500 RPM at every gear change in my sedan.

38mpg is awesome.
