aren't the directions on the knob? and if you can't see it to well they have the light up ones at advanced.

You see what had happened was....the knob is old and so the directions are worn off it...or maybe I just suck at driving How do you make 5 passes and miss at least 1 gear every single time

Anyways my worst run was a 14.4 and best was a 13.6...I only ran 3 times in the integra...I was happy considering I suck at driving and the car has a stock slipping clutch and shitty street tires. Easily a 12 sec car so I am happy
you better keep that speed demon off the streets

Got the Pro 5.0, not sure I like it. I'm not gonna blame the shifter though. I'm definitely not used to it yet, but this transmission just doesn't seem to go in gear anywhere near as smoothly as past T5's I've had. I wish someone made a kit to swap a 3650 into a 5.0...god that transmission shifted like butter.

the foxbody i had, the one i should've kept, had a pro 5.0 shifter in it. Needless to say I missed a gear when driving that thing. lol i didn't have it long enough to really even get used to it.
