Is it healthy for me to do 80mph in 3rd gear in ss if i am not redlining yet. I do hear a lot of noise but i feel the vtec because the higher rpms. All i want to know is will i hurt my tranny if i am doing these speeds in a low gear

 

it's fine as long as you don't hold the gear for too long, or abruptly apply/cut of throttle.

 

Go for it... it's what SS mode for.

 

Just give it a little extra punch each time you pass a police car...

 

make sure you're in the vtec range, too. that's where all the fun is. my buddy would tell you how much fun this can be, but he already used his phone call allowance for the month.

 

SS is designed for that, but if you never break third gear in the lifetime of the car you are more then likely develope some problems.

 

whats not healthy is think your in ss mode and your not and you go to up shift and you put the car in nuetral...
