Default Automatic......Moving...Neutral..Rebbing..ok?

Sometimes when im going down the avenue and i see somefag looking at my car out of their crappy honda I roll up beside them going about 30 or so pop it in neutral(this is an automatic) and let the douche hear some loud american muscle...then back to drive and blast out...is this bad for the transmission or is it ok?

If your talking about reving your motor and dumping it back into drive.. you will blow your tranny.. I have asked Techs this very same questions and was told if you do it enough you will dump the tranny right there on the street.

Are the rpm's still spooled when you throw it in drive?

Either way it will take a toll on your auto.

I usually do a good job of letting the rpm's before i drop it back into drive i just do it to taunt a little bit then i blast out, another question is when i blast out like that seems like it take a second for my car to realize hey he wants to go fast then it will kinda "dip" down in the front and blast out...im a newbie but im guessing a tuner will help with this a little bit?

As long as you do the obvious and let the RPMs return to idle.

Yep that's your typical stock AUTO... the automatics wake up once you get a tune in there and work out the shift points and firmness of the shifts.



On another note.. if you put it in nutral and rev it.. as long as you wait for the RPMs to die down to almost idle you should be ok.
