ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!
Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956
Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)
Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.
These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.
1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.
2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.
3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.
4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.
The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.
The rules for the overall forum can be found here:
http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/forumdisplay.php?f=144
Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

I suppose w/ an intake and exhaust you pull up the power band though. Not that I have those.

Every play Need For Speed Underground? The drag racing parts of that game have you shifting at certain points. A perfect shift makes you go faster. It does apply.
For example, I have an H22. The VTEC crossover is set at 5200, I think. If I shift at 7200, and shift quick, the next gear will start in VTEC. If I shift lower, or slower, it'll start out of VTEC... which is not in the motor's powerband... it's actually a bit of a flat spot. That will cost me in a race.
I agree with dev. on this one it is knowing the limits of your car and the perfect shift timing of your car. When ever you race your car you try to start in the cars powerband. If you start to early you will lose. If you start to late you don't have enough gear to get a good pull. Timing is everything. A persons knowledge about there car and the limits of there car is everything in this post IMO.

watch Initial D, they talk about a lot of driving techniques.
Plus its a killer show
Good racing techniques include dynamic drifting, weight transfer, toe-and-heel, clutch kicking (prematurely kills clutch), power steer, bootlegging (rallying), left-foot braking, power-shifting, Scandinavian flickDEVOTE

Yeah. I don't know if I want to clutch kick and all that on my car... plus drifting? hahah. In an accord? That show looks funny. Never heard of it though.
Yeah, I realize that there is a lot of driver involved. Which is why I was asking what to do, haha.
Is power shifting without the clutch? Isn't that really bad for your tranny?
