JustGav Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 (edited) I'm genuinely interested if i'm wrong Gav... or there's more too it? Nope, the term is called powerbraking. Foot hard on the brakes and the accelerator, it won't hit the rev limiter as the stall point of the torque converter will be reached first, lights go green, let go of the brake. Be warned not to sit on on the brake for too long, as it DOES get the ATF rather warm and coolers should always considered if you plan on doing it often.

Be warned not to sit on on the brake for 15 minutes, as it DOES get the ATF rather warm and coolers should always considered if you plan on doing it often. At what point does the stall point kick it?

JustGav Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Stock stall is around 2.2k I THINK (Don't even bother quoting me on that as I'm not 100% sure ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
