it actually works ,when u hit about 4700 RPM,u gota time it then downshift to D2 and it gives u better acceleration then when u hit 5600 RPM again shift to D. You should accelerate really fast from 45 till u u hit like 60. Its a cheap upgrade lol

I read this thread in the library this morning at school and tried it on the way home. I was not expecting it to snap my passengers neck off....

is that what it did?

there is nothing wrong with 1-2-D, it just doesnt firm up the 1-2 shift liek the D2D does

i wouldn't do it from every stop. only do it ocassionally. better off safe than sorry.
im semi testing that as we speaknot quite every stop light, but alot more then it should

its been fine for the last 13k
Ive done the same, for the last 1½ years, no problems from the tranny, and i do it quite often. Sometimes, yea from every light.

i tried out this method and i could not get it to chirp second either but my back did slide to the right . i was at like a 5 mph roll i punched it then when i saw it hit 4500 i timed it to where i would hit "2" at 4700 then when i threw the shifter down my rear end completely lost traction and it took about 4 or 5 ft before i finally caught then i waited till it hit 5000 and i shifted back into D am i doing it right? why did i lose traction i have some pretty wide back tires to catch the road.

Should I turn O/D off when I do it?
