If possible, acceleration/torque in all RPM range.

Even 1.3 Wira can hit 190km/h. It may take sometime, but it'll hit 190km/h anyway.

Some cars when accelerate at low RPM, they're fast. Close gear ratio can give that.

But just imagine 1.3 Wira moving at 120km/h tailgating, does our car have enough torque to move away from the 1.3 Wira at 120km/h (probably 3-4,000 RPM)?

Guys, I'm not talking about the engine's ability to reach top speed. What i'm trying to imply is that the gear box for manual neo should be able to reach 250km/h provided that the engine has the abality to do so AFTER i turbo my car...... Not talking about acceleration or anything.

pls re-read my post above. if u understand clearly, my story is about gearbox durability and endurance.

do you still believe that by forced induction it can change your gearbox characteristic / internals / ratio as well?
forced induction is about torque brother..its about how fast your car pulls..not about enhancing how great your top speed is. it will never have a humongous effect on your gearbox and your top speed.
heck even right now you'll be able to reach your top speed. (250km/h as claimed)
the only difference is you 'll be able to smoke 3 cigarettes to reach your top speed..if u know what i mean..

power is delivered through gearing brother..no matter how good or how power you built your engine, it is still the gearbox that transfers the power to the ground.
if gearing is not important.. i can bet that dogbox will never ever be heard by any auto enthusiast.

thats why people talk about acceleration. that's the relationship.

MKMD I appreciate what you're trying to explain. That means what you're saying is that my my gearbox now can reach 250km/h just that it will take a long time and that it might get damaged in the process? That means kena upgrade GB la if I want to rech my goal??

Note: I just want to know wheter the gear can 'tarik' until 250km/h (ignoring acceleration) Thats all.... I know acceleration is important also but the main thing now I i want to know wheter the GB can tahan or not only...... of coz based on my 5th gear setting now the acceleration after 4th gear is gonna be slow.

For me my car now acceleration is slow after 160km/h (4th gear redline).... and I tried top speed of 180km/h (GPS speedo) only on highway.... got blocked by some ppl that refuse to move to left lane :banghead:
IMO 5th gear ratio on the neo is very long. That's Y it feels loose even after shifting from 4th (at7k rpm) to 5th the rpm will drop to about 4k.... 5th gear designed for highway cruising fuel efficiency I assume??

Trying to tapau ferarri.... LOL. Just kiddin.

Want top speed just for the satisfaction of knwing you can do it. Actually I don't even know if I dare to go beyond 200km/h in my car now.

Acceleration important also to tapau ppl at traffic light. Hahaha! :burnout:

ok..sorry brother for the misunderstanding.

dyno is the way to go. on the road test is too dangerous.
