Thought these graphs might be interesting to some of you. The dyno numbers are from the stock curve shown on the Racing Beat dyno for the 2.5L engine.
This first graph shows the lb-ft available in each (6-speed automatic) gear, vs the vehicle speed. It visually shows how acceleration drops in higher gears. In this case, I'd downshift to 3rd for a quick pass starting at 65 mph.
This graph plots engine rpm vs mph, in each of the auto's 6 speeds.
In 24 hours, I'll be able to experience this first-hand. I'm a little anxious for the time to pass...
