Pro-Shift PS2-R Car System
The New Pro-Shift PS2-R Gearshifting System for Sequential Applications
Adding to the great success of the multiple Championship winning PS2 and now incorporating the additional time adjustable Ignition Ramping "R" facility that provides fully adjustable Ignition or Fuel Injection Ramping back on after a Flatshift to give the smoothest most vehicle friendly gearshifting yet, easily tunable to suit individual driving styles, allied to the proven Auto-Blip Downshifting output the PS2-R is a big step forward in affordable high specification gearshifting technology.
Designed and manufactured in the UK with specific aim to offer the professional or club driver/rider all of the benefits of high tech motorsport at affordable prices.
Compatible with virtually any sequentially geared vehicle, please read on for a little more in depth description about the gearshifting system and its capabilities.
Offering typical ignition cut times of around 20mS which we believe to be the fastest commercially available, further to this if the vehicle is fitted with a high specification after market ignition then gear specific graduated ignition or fuel injection cuts can be available.
The characteristics of our electronic operation are such that when initiating a gearshift the gearshift actuator delivers a rising power curve from its rest position, this is ideally suited to dog gearbox gearshifting because it is mechanically sympathetic and by its nature achieves compliance with the gears whilst gearshifting, this gives the highly desirable benefit of prolonging gearbox life. The nature of a solenoid actuated gearshifting system is that they exhibit built in safety features, for example if the downshift paddle is pulled whilst accelerating the PS2-R System will not downshift as the initial low power gearshift start up would not pull an engaged gearbox "dog" out of gear whilst loaded.
The system's electronic operation with only one moving part provides inherent reliability and with relatively simple installation it is ideally suited to racing vehicle applications, a critical advantage it holds over air systems is that it does not produce water when used and is therefore virtually maintenance free.
With regard to downshifting, the Pro-Shift PS2-R Gearshift Control Unit (GCU) also features a time adjustable downshift "blipper" output along with a downshift delay timer, if used in conjunction with either of our downshift "auto-blippers", this will allow seamless clutchless downshifting that can be fine tuned to suit any engine/gearbox combination, throttle openings are easily adjustable to match differing downshifting requirements.
The amount of throttle "blip" executed will not rev the engine above a set ceiling and thus prevents drivers from accidentally overreving on downshifts, avoiding potential catastrophic engine or gearbox damage.
The all new Pro-Shift PS2-R System provides the option of fully time adjustable "flat" upshifting using the ignition or fuel injection cut module incorporated into the solid state Gearshift Control Unit (GCU).
Made using the highest quality materials the body is designed to fit on almost every "QD" steering wheel and we can also provide a three-six bolt adapter for rally type fixings. It is black anodized and engraved with the Pro-Shift logo whilst the ergonomically designed finger plates are made of Titanium, they are both hand span and offset adjustable.
As space is often restricted this solenoid driven device is designed to operate directly on to the vehicles accelerator pedal thus providing clutchless downshifting without the need for the driver to manually blip the throttle. When used in conjunction with the PS2-R it can provide variable gear specific "blips" and will also work in conjunction with the PS2-R's downshift "lock out" feature for every gear thus providing inherent overrev protection when downshifting, preventing costly engine/gearbox damage.
