I like to punch it at 10 and feel the power till I get to 40 mph and the cops start paying attention.

With my tune, my car grabs 2 gears lower all the time. So really, I enjoy it at all sorts of speeds.

When it was running 0-85 acording to the speedo, I know it has been well over that, I have had it take a min plus after letting off before the needle even leaves 85

In the intrigue fav is 30ish to about 90 once it grabs for the next gear at about 70 is when I just gone, my buddy Rick has experianced it a few time when trying to keep with me on the freeway

Saturn is gutless

At 50-55 the 4-2 gear drop is orgasmic, and once it shifts to third it's like being shot in a slingshot. Anything less than that equals wheel spin.
