    I use my check engine light as a shift light

      m20b25, 3.73.

      Usually about 3500 in 1st, 3k for all other gears when I'm just driving normal speeds in the city...but I always get into higher revs at least once or twice per trip once the engine is fully warmed up.

            I shift when the bell rings....:pimp:

            I installed the fry timer from McDonald's
            so when the bell rings,
            it's time to shift, right?

              If I'm next to a prius I usually make a point not to shift until redline even if I'm just dawdling along.

              Fuck you, environmentalists.
