60-80 accelleration times with and w/out boost
Posted: Tue Mar 29, 2005 12:37 am
Driving on I-84 is a long stretch so I did a few 60-80 accelleration runs in 4th and 5th gears
I would get it into gear, set the cruise control to 60 so i was neither accellerating nor slowing and then floor it and time myself.
4th gear was 7 seconds on boost, 12 seconds off boost.
5th gear was 9 seconds on boost and 23 seconds off boost.
In fact, fifth gear pulls so well I seldom downshift to 4th ever when climbing hills.
