Sounds perfect to me.  I went over to Scirocco.org to do
some calculations, and I think I'm going to go with a 4k
and .80 5th in my 16v. (No 6th since I don't have unlimited
funds!) The revs would only be about 100 rpm lower in 5th
than I have now, but that doesn't really bother me.  Plus,
I've got a 4k or two available, and the 16v is due for a
clutch. :)
