just for fun here's an old one of mine from the first day I got the power fc. I start from 3K rpms. notice the lack of a pause at 4k. thats the way it would look if someone were going full throttle all the way. http://www.ksbservices.com/powerfc/8600shift.wmv

Im not gonna argue with you because you do make a good logical point. HOWEVER, after i saw this video, i talked directly with Christian (Blue Bomber) and he did say some stuff to me. Don't know if i should say it but basically lift IS kicking in at 4500. ALSO stated that this "x-factor" mod will be out next year and i should get cracking on saving for it. Cams are for sure being developed by TPR and other stuff. TPR isn't just gonna stop at intake and exhaust. They're done with that.. just waiting for the shop to ship. Meanwhile, TPR is developing the full catback exhaust thing with the 2.5" mid pip or whatever so it's a "full" exhaust system. Also headers .. and Cams as evident into Easy C's video/car. But from here, it's basically a moot point cause i can't prove it with paperwork. Even if i could i probably wouldn't be allowed to by TPR. And you can't prove your side either because you can't show me EasyC's car and his mods. So yeah.. i guess we'll have to wait till next year. Or EasyC's response. lol  out of courtesy to chris (easyC) I'm not gonna get into details of what they are planning or why you still wont be gettin lift at 4500 rpms. I don't talk to blue personally so if he's claimin that I'd like to see him post it. but I have a feeling that wont happen. I am 100% confident that lift did NOT come on at 4500 rpms. I guess the easiest way is to make a video the same way using my car. and I garauntee lift kics on at 6000 rpms not 4500. but I bet I can make it sound like it  Ah icic. From what he told me it was pretty much saying that lift kicked in at 4500. He didn't say that exactly though which is why i stated my opinion and said "basically" but then again im not "inside" TPR so i can be wrong. All i know for sure is that something made the car have more power at 4500, which is similar to lift. That wasn't regular WOT. Cams and other stuff are being developed which can probably adjust the car's lift thing or whatever. So my joke about a "Double lift" might actually turn out to be true! haha

there's lift at 6K, it just doesn't come through very well in the video. Turn up your speakers and you should hear something.

lol wow, i go away for a couple days and i have an entire thread ...OK to clear up some confusion. that isn't my personal car. thats my test subject in southern cali. From what I have heard from my shop. thats a more aggressive mid cam, which is why WOT sounds like lift. they did inform me that after some ecu adjusting, they were able to lower lift gainfully. You really wont need it tho because with whats coming out, you should be able to land lift without trying  . Thats all i have at this time oh btw. TRD is 88dB and TPR is 90
TPR Intake! - Injens high end with AEM's low end and NO BOGGING!
TPR EXHAUST! - Exhaust made 10.5 whp peak and 32 whp at 6300 on my car!!!

I srarted from 3K cause I was doing 20 mph if you look at the speedometer. it's not idleing that high. I have power FC so my lift is not very noticeable. just a nice smooth ride all the way up.
also like I said 4500 ish is where he went WOT not a 2nd lift.
thanx for speakin up chris.

So i was right.. damn celicas need cams fast! But im sure TPR has something coming up. Have a feeling that it wont be so cheap though.
