Picked up my new f3 yesterday from Hicklin Motor Sports and if I had not visited this form I would have went right back to them. Sure enough 62 mph the vib started left at 67 Thank you all for the info.

The vibes on my wife's are speed-related, not rpm-related, so waiting to shift doesn't matter. Look at the engine's tq curve......you aren't bogging if you shift well below 70 mph!

Time will tell. I hope your right and slapping a Belt tension contraption on there will solve the problem, but I don’t think it will.

The 1330 engine can be run in 6th down at 45 mph around town without bogging.
