but we arent talking about downshifting. thought we were talking about racing, ie. drag and track so acceleration.

my logs show on my wrx from redline to where the rpms fall after a shift then back up (and where i re-engage is peak power), it takes 2.0 seconds to get there. from peak power down to were the rpms falls after a shift it takes 1.4 seconds. so in this cars case it would seem shifting at peak power is better then going beyond it since the time is faster with every shift. this is only 3rd to 4th so its not like shifting at peak will give me 0.6 seconds in every gear, but you see what im saying.

even if it was 0.6 seconds every gear and the car made power to redline or beyond, the time and rpm isnt worth it to me for the cost of a motor.
