draggin'

I was wondering what is the best RPM to shift at to get the fastest acceleration. If anyone could respond I would really appreciate it, I want to start drag racing my car and want to get the fastest time I can get.

The answer would depend on what if any modifications you have made and what year it is (which turbocharger)

------------------
88 TC X 2, 86 SVO, Main TC with K&N, 3"DP to 2.5"duals through Dynamax, Ric valve at 17+ and disconnected KS.
Elite Bodega 16" chrome wheels. Autometer pod w/ A/F and Vac/boost gauges. New engine: Total Seal rings and TRW pistons, ported and polished head w/ cc'd chambers,1.59"exhausts, SS valves, gutted upper, knife edged lower, A-230 cam, Race Engineering Adj Cam Sprocket, Crowlers, ARP head studs, and rod bolts. Walbro 255 HP pump and T-3. Centerforce II, KB subs and jack rails.

All I have done to it was I have a K&N air filter and a Rhino muffler and that is it. at least for now.

Assuming it an 87-88 try 5400 to 5700. If you are doing 1/4mi you may find slightly quicker times shifting to 4th than winding through the traps in 3rd
