Exactly what rpm are you at when the car is in 3rd and has no power?

i noticed that my EF will get to 80km/h in first then i cant remember what speed im doing at the 2nd to 3rd shift but i have noticed that 3rd does take some time to boot.

Im running a 3.08(i asume thats a stock GLi ratio)and a auto. I also found the shift kit holds the gear longer and boots it a bit more.

Get a shift kit on before you do anything else and tell us how a run goes. Im interested to see the drag times compraed.
