Ryan said:im sorry but i just dont agree with you, i believe it depends on what your boosting as to what rpm u will be at what speed ur at.
Ryan said:he's basically saying that at x speed u should be at x rpm, and i think it differs from car to car based on ur setup etc.. and being that we were talking about msp's i seriously think that depending on what psi ur boosting at would have alot more to do with what rpm u'd be reading at x speed.
Ryan said:no your still not understanding what im getting at..
listen carefully, im saying the x rpm - x speed is gonna differ from car to car due to mods and setups...
becuz in my car when i hit 132 i was about 4.5k rpms and the guy in the video was at 5k at 132... explain that.. i would say its the different setups that we have. stock yes what your saying makes sense.. but when you add in mods and different things i believe its gonna change.
Thank you, I was reading down and hoping someone would stop this before it got ridiculous.RyanJayG said:the only mods that can change speed at x-rpm are wheels/tires (different circumference(diameter x pi)), clutch(due to the stock not holding up to the torque and slipping), or changing the actual gears in the tranny. there are no ifs ands or buts about this.
I am not trying to flame anyone, but this is plain physics talking
