engine rev
 
I have noticed ever since buying my truck that if you rev the enine in park, it revs very slowly and seems limited. Is this related to the torque mangement? I just thought since there is no load on the engine in park that the torque management may be limiting it. Any of you that have the tune already still experience it?

Well I have the 4.8 so maybe it revs a tiny bit differently but it doesn't really rev slow at all in my opinion. Doesn't rev as fast as the LT1 in my Camaro but it seems to rev just fine. Maybe not having enough backpressure is causing that...?

mine revs too fast for me... people dont get the entire effect, it gets to 5800 too quick... takes FOREVER to get back down to idle though... three times as long as to rev... sounds wicked...

wow that was off topic... sorry about that... anyway, my 4.8 also doesn't do that...

More off topic...... You wanna know what revs slow? Mitsubishis. Neither of the ones I owned were designed to make any more power past 5500rpm and they took forever to get there. Even the turbod Conquest. My 240SX on the other hand would rev like a motorcycle!:D

Thats why, you had DOHC. I had a 89' SOHC. It was essentially the 2.4 truck motor with a different intake manifold. Mine didn't rev for sh*t.

LOL! Yep, I had that the good ol' KA24DE! That thing was amazing for a four naturally aspirated 4 cylinder. Check it out on my xanga page. The link is in my signature.

Sweet rims. I'd love to buy another one, but have a DOHC or KA24DET.

Yeah I wanted to turbo mine so bad. It just needed too much body work when I got rid of it. My mom parked it right behind the mail box one night after I let her drive it and I went to back out of the yard and raked it across the driver side of the 240.......[:@] ANGRY! I needed a new driver door, both fenders, a front bumper and a new rear hatch. Just didn't want to deal with it. Most of that was not from the mail box though. I had also installed KYB AGX dampening adjustable struts in it. It handled great with those and the low pro tires! Smoke20 is gonna be hacked that we hijacked his post LOL!!
