Kick into 2nd

[stefler_88]

Hey guys just wondering. When i pull off the line in 1st in a spirited way does anyones car have a real kick or jolt goin into second when u put full throttle on again.

Cheers guys stefan

Yes.

I find that not hitting the overboost in first gear and flooring second helps a lot

Funny i noticed this when driving the corsa today.

Never ever had this is the one i had.

This was a normal gear change,not really giving it any power.

Yes.

yh i think when i give it a little too much in 1st theres a real shunt into 2nd lol, i do tend normally to get it into 2nd around 4,000 rpm in 1st then go all out,
lol

you always take 1st round to 4k before change??

I get it. Try not going so high up the revs in first.
Also don't dump the clutch when changing or it will jolt in and can give a bit of wheel spin as you get into 2nd.

You don't have overboost in 1st or 2nd. It's just 3rd and above
