It all depends what you are doing.  If you are doing time trials, shoft at
around 5000 in second and 5500 for 3rd, that is where the VR6 really kicks
in. Now, if you are racing lets say one of those shitty Civics of 325's
and want to toy with them, well then shift when it feels right, to each
his own. Now, let me ask you this, my GLX just turned 14000 miles and for
some reason it seems to be running really well lately like it has just
been broken in, anyone feel the samwe withthier car?
