Milo500 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Hi guys, Have read through numerous threads for this, but want a definate answer from someone that has DONE IT/HAS an auto. As I have asked before and usually get people just saying, "put it in manu mode"....but if low down in the revs and in manu mode in "d", then you floor it...it still kicks down...making it unacurate on the dyno. The car is a single converted originally twin, around 400-550 ish...but want a definate number on it. Is there any way to make it not kick down? Will appreciate anyone that can respond to this with FACTS, not guesses, or aggro saying "well you obviously do this etc etc etc". Cheers, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian888 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Unless someone wants to correct me manu mode should "lock" it in gear you choose? At least that's what mine does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, it'll only drop out if revs are too low and stalling, or too high and your going to kill it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T2 MSW Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 No issues dynoing an auto. Make sure its someone that has done it before, or they just tend to fob you off that it can't be done. Manual mode locks it in the gear you want it in, unless you rem your foot to the floor and press the kick down switch then it will kick down. So don't press that and its all fine. Check the car has a rev limit set before putting it on a dyno. Ive seen to many cars be put on a dunk not knowing and it bouncing the wrong side of 8K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcbt Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 You put in 3rd gear Manu mode and slowly build revs before pushing for full power run. Expect a 20% transmission loss on the auto box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Budz86 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Or just share what you made at the wheels/hub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milo500 Posted March 8, 2017 Author Share Posted March 8, 2017 Thanks guys! To be fair everytime I tried this I must of had it in overdrive. And it always kicked down through it... I re-tried it with over drive off, and in manu in 3rd and it won't kickdown hence can be dyno'd. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annabella Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 That's why the supra auto box is so good, it does as it's told in manual mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
