How do I calculate my optimal shift points for max acceleration, using my dyno graph and gear ratios?
The basic idea is that you always want to be in the gear with the most HP for the given speed. This means you must analyze what your HP values are for different RPM ranges and find where the HPs in different gears intersect. I’ll explain with an example — the 2-3 shift on My modified 97 Maxima SE 5-speed.
