@ 60mph-65mph (power-ranges)
Quote:
Another one is.... try taking your foot off the Accelerator pedal and slowing to the 15-20mph range (and while still rolling) STOMP on the gas to the floor.... this will also give you that "take-off" feeling....but only til about 40mph....then the "take-off" feeling dies off again. So my idea is that there are certain ranges of the Power Mode that perform better, and produce more thrust. These power ranges make the SVX seem like it's incredibly fast, and if you time the 15-20mph range just right you'll find yourself peeling tires out of turns, and thats exciting! -SVXJoe |

boost mode
Yeah, I too have felt this on my '92. Most times we just accelerate normally, in "power" mode but sometimes...It REALLY does take off. And the faint odor of way rich exhuast accompanies it.
37 HP, no. But sometimes...WOW. I think it has something to do with the GF's hand on my knee. *shrugs* |

double pump the accelerator for a nice take-off. when you do that, it seems like the ECU says "OH! you wanna go fast, huh?!?!"
