Re: Gearshift Maps

Good work, I agree. The comparison between throttle opening and, for US cars at least, the front speed sensor is likely what most of the AWD duty is based on for normal driving. Although, it is true that none of the SVX transmissions had the input shaft speed sensor, this was added later to check for slippage among other things already mentioned. But it could just as easily be used for the calculation as the speed sensor that is on the final drive on the later units. Again, good work, and good thinking.

This is my favorite thread ever, and I've been a part of this community for ten years.
