[QUOTE="k3nny, post: 79350, member: 139"] my experience with the valvy is that once it enters the 4th gear, all is gone. In fact, ive mentioned before, the ratio between the 3rd and the 4th is spaced very far apart.. hmm meaning... Like normally 2nd to 3rd would make the revs drop from 6500rpm to 5000rpm and continue climbing so you're still pulling hard but 3rd to 4th will make the revs drop from 6500rpm to 4000rpm which is alot.. and the car feels sluggish from there.. I hope i explained what i meant right? On a drag, ive managed to keep up with an auto stock Accord Euro with the 2.4l K24 i-VTEC but once i enter 4th, he pulls. [/QUOTE]
