launch control & gearbox

by **xxxr6t** » April 1st, 2012, 9:07 pm

ok i want to know if the bf ba auto comes with launch control i seen a comment on you-tube saying in the xr6t auto put it in neutral and rev it and it will only rev to 3000 then hit it into drive, i have a xr6 non turbo and in neutral it will only rev to 3000 but i am a bit worried slapping it into drive i did this on a ea i had and put the gearbox through the roof :mrgreen:

also has anyone ever tried to put a xr6 4 or 6 speed into a e-series :geek:

It's not launch control, it's protecting the driveline from dickheads trying to redline the engine then drop it into gear. E-Series and B-Series 4speeds are both BTR boxes, 6 speed manuals have been done everywhere, autos not so much.

yeah that's what i thought
i ask about the gear box because i have an ed xr6 turbo manual and want to put a 4 speed into it so i can use the sport shift for 1/4mile not sure how it would all work ive never even bother with a b-series so its all new ground for me

You can put the sports shift into an e-series box. Commando did it!

after reading a bit not sure how it could work apparently the shifter communicates with the computer to change gears
