just a quick question about the 2200 engine, i know the horsepower rating is 115, and i know it redlines at 6000, however i cant for the life of me remember if the horsepower peaks at 5000 rpms or 5200?? anyone have an idea??

5200

awesome! thanks! another thing i just thought of, would an automatic at full throttle shift at 5200 or 6000?

damn, i was hoping for a 2200 hp cavy...

haha, that'd be cool, imagine getting that out of a 2200 though.....

*boom*

I saw a 870 HPTop FuelCavalier at the track a few months ago. Rear wheel drive with a 464 in it :)

damn, i was hoping for a 2200 hp cavy...I thought the exact same thing and my first thought was, "Not a chance".

so would an automatic at full throttle shift at 5200 or 6000?? also, with a 5 speed, would you do the 1/4 mile faster shifting at 5200, or 6000? im guessing 5200, but i'd feel alot better if someone could back that up....

I second this reply. I was all excited to see like a really sweet as cavalier, then just saw jakes. I was dissappointed. :) Hah! I'm just kidding jake.

oh you dont have to lie, i know it looks kinda disappointing, just imagine how bad it'd look without the photo editing software....

but serioulsy, can anyone answer my previous question????

speaking of photo editing software...would anyone be interested in making a sig for me using my pic of the shot from the back of the car aimed towards the front...that would be cool..i would but i have not a clue about how to do stuff like that..so if anyones interested thatd be awesome

I WILL.....Shift at 5000, the tourque curve starts to cut off at about 5000-5200. i would shift there. at 6000 the torque is not there. Thats what i think.

PM me with the pics and what you want

finally someone with an answer, yeah thats what i thought, you can actually feel when it starts "losing torque" (or however you'd say it), right around 3000 it starts to throw you back in your seat a little bit, and right around 5200 it loses that "throwbackness"

still the part i wanna know the most, does an automatic at full throttle shift at 5200 or 6000?

I beleve about 6000. well a little before hand. 5800-5900. right about there. give or take. I hope this helps a little.
