Have the same car, mine redlined at 59 ish too. Also, is there a different chip in your car? Kuz, I saw the traction loss light stay on all the way through fourth.
Damn, I didn't think those things were that slow..... I thought they would be a lil bit quicker. Not to down the 2.5L I-5 or anything. It sounds magnificent!!! I wonder if cams would make it any quicker....

whats up with the short-shifting?
Mrb00st 3 years ago
Its because of the powerband in the 2.5 5cyl
The power doesnt peak at red line so you actually go slowwer if you red line shift white these engines in 3rd+ gears

@a7xogg I agree but his shifting was still short in 2nd.He could have taken second to 60mph easy without hitting the redline...
