PSA - Manual Transmissions

[Charlemagne]

how many 1/4 mile passes do you have on yours at 800hp?

I don't have 800 hp, I don't need it. I'm commenting about what I read. Recommendations for manual was to stay below 600-650 with supercharger. Unlike 10R80 which is often paired with 750+ hp. If it is, there are reasons for it. My question was, what is wrong with Noleftist trans that it makes him call it POS. Honestly, if someone goes the super power way then he should have super heavy wallet.

I did my fair share of 50 to 200 km/h and love it every time but 1/4 mile from zero seems useless when any AWD Tesla will beat your ass and we don't have prepared surface for it here anyway. I like it more in the curves.

Shifting is sketchy, constant hunting for gears, inconsistent shift pressures. Gets way worse when HP levels go up.

So yer a roll racer, stupidest metric ever. Also, not so fast sport, I beat a fair share of dual motor Tesla's on the street, as they're banned from our 1/4 mile strip.

The difference is in the 0-30 or 0-50, before Mustang even starts moving, AWD is gone, on any surface or dry/wet conditions. Once rolling, they get similar but Performance is still somewhere else. Never cared for that as I never cared for racing, for me it's fast enough as is.

I don't see it hunting for gears because I know how to operate it whether I'm cruising or driving spiritedly, works great in drag mode too. Your price is half of the 150k pricetag for GT500 here... Sorry to hear it behaves way worse with higher power, but then I have to question why people don't replace it with something better when they put supercharger on, or why they don't get GT500 which was made for that kind of power. And why they keep repeating that nothing else needs to be replaced when putting supercharger on. Too much misleading information in the forums.
