The numbers that come up when you upgrade transmision e.g. -.08 secs. Do they apply to manual with clutch or just automatic.?Also my wife runs automatic, are the the clutch and flywheel upgrades usefull.
Clutch and especially flywheel are the VERY last upgrades I would use. Ever.
I dont have an answer to your first question. I have wondered this myself though. I do know from following alot of great tuners here that the Race trans is a waste most of the time.
I wouldnt quite say race is a waste it just depends on the class or what you are trying to accomplish. Some race trans work well and some just suck up to much PI. The clutch and flywheel are on none of my cars at all since most are just a complete waste considering they add a lot of PI and do nothing for manual clutch.
Oh I agree with you… “Race trans is a waste most of the time”
The numbers it gives you -.08 sec for example apply only on automatic, and manual without clutch. Manual with clutch it does not apply, as the clutch os open only when you press the button on your controller. This is one of the reasons why manual with clutch is superior form of shifting.
Clutch MIGHT be useful, but I would use it only in extreme cases, For example when you have just about too much power, or you can trade it for 1 stage (rally to sport or sport to street)of driveshaft.
gearbox also might be useful, but I wouldn’t pick it unless it’s almost PI free.
