Optimal RPM range

kcpanages · 04-23-2009, 05:09 AM

What is the best rpm to stay at while playing in mud? what does a 22r red line at? i would like to set my shift light so i can know when im getting to the best rpm with out slinging my motor apart. i try to stay around 4500.but feel i can bring the rpm's up a lil more. not sure.... im running 5.29 gears and 38.5 boggers.

i think i saw on my buddies sr5 the redline on a 4 cyl is almost 6k. not positive though. run it till you hear the valves float!

22rs red like runs about 5500-6000RPMS.... i dont wanna burst ur bubble but its not wise to push the 22r that hard all the time... wears a motor quicker with high rpms.... i mean unless it beefed up and or low miles or new you kinda should not do that with the 22r or really any motor... you will see thats how they start knocking.... 22rs dont like high RPMS....the 22r produces all its HP at 3800RPMS anyway you don't need red line.

22r= ~96 hp @ 4800 rpm, ~ 129ft/lbs @ 2800
22re= ~116 hp @ 4800 rpm, ~142ft/lbs @ 2800 rpm
