hey wassup, danny right? so you purchased your s2k?
When I'm driving normally, no point in wasting gas and putting extra wear and tear on the car by driving it hard. I save that for the weekends. I always keep the rpms above 2000 rpms. First and second I pretty much always shift 3-4k, but the higher gears I shift out of at even 2.5k-3k.
er..... it varies with traffic load, air temp, road gradient, mood, etc etc etc... its senseless to quantify shift point at different gears
shift by feel.. 90% of the time i dont even pay attention to the RPM
the only hard "rule" i have is i dont go into 6th below 45mph... no throttle response + feels like it lugs the motor
