Re: 2 step & bad harmonics
Couldn't agree more. I want to scream when I hear burnouts on a two step. It's like nails on a blackboard. And totally unnecessary. If you can't modulate engine rpm in a burnout, you need to learn how, or find a new hobby/sport.

Re: 2 step & bad harmonics
That backs up what I've thought for years. No two steps in our cars.

Re: 2 step & bad harmonics
We've run in to this at the shop I work at. We've got a customer with a 555 BBC he came to us after breaking a timing chain. We repaired the damage (bent valves ect) replaced the chain and all was good for about 30 pass's and you guessed it, even with a up grade timing chain it broke again. He run's a burnout chip at a pretty high RPM The shop owner's been telling him to get rid of the chip maybe he'll believe David.

Re: 2 step & bad harmonics
There's a difference between the older 2 steps and the newer .
Analog to digital . I wouldn't do a burnout with a 2 step , but at launch RPM ( 7000 ) the newer digital boxes are very smooth. |

Re: 2 step & bad harmonics
One thing I have noticed is the higher the rpm the smoother the 2 step gets or feels and sounds,I have used high side on starting line for long time have'nt had any problems ,but I am only on it from flash of first amber.
I agree completely with that article David Reher had in ND. I say the lower the rpm of chip the harder it is on stuff Mike Taylor 3601 |
