Hey kids,

During a 500 mile road trip on my 01' CLS, I noticed doing 105, my RPM's were below 2500. I'd say around 2300. Is this common for the VTEC's

Thanks in advance.

 

Wow that sounds alil' low for 105mph. I thought the engine revs @ 2500 when you're goin' like, 80?

 

It's more around 2200 at 80 mph for the AT.

 

that sounds about right for my auto tl-s

 

That's about what it is for me. I'm at about 2500rpm around 100-110 mph. I'd love to see no restrictor and about 5000rpm in AT5. I wonder how fast this car can go?? Gotta love this car

 

i think its limited at 147

 

I knew that, but I wonder what we could get up to if they were not limited?? I just verified it, I'm at 2100 rpm @ 80mph. Not bad

 

Odd. Mine's at about 2400 RPM at 80 mph.

 

That's wat I'm sayin'. Those rpm #'s seem high for the mph stated... where're you guys getting these numbers if I may ask?

 

CL-P 5AT stock tire diameter 220mph @ 6000rpm
CL-S 5AT stock tire diameter 237mph @ 6500rpm

CL-S 6M stock tires 194mph @ 6500rpm

I used the original service manual to get gear ratios.

 

anyone know what the rpms are at when you are going 147?

 

CL-P 5AT 147mph @ 4150rpm(5th gear)
CL-P 5AT 147mph @ 5750rpm(4th gear)

CL-S 5AT 147mph @ 4200rpm(5th gear)
CL-S 5AT 147mph @ 5800rpm (4th gear)

CL-S 6MT 147mph @ 5100rpm (6th gear)
CL-S 6MT 147mph @ 6450rpm (5th gear)

 

< noob 147 is the top speed ryte?.....

 

you talking to me?

 

Odd. My TL-P's RPMs are about 2500 at ~85mph

 

BEEN up to 142 but I was so worried about other things i didnt look at my RPMS, About 125-130 the seals start to break and the wind is a LOUD

 

probably pretty high but it would take forever to climb in the higher mph

 

Holy shit, thats fast!
