6speed good deal??





Julie,  I was reading this thread and I came to the conclusion that the 4.20
gear and pinion only does, and is good for one thing
Short straights and lots of curves.

Look at this example (all data submitted taken from the gear calculator at
scirocco.org

4Y, 9A, ACD, AEN (8v Close Ratio) 3.67 3.45 2.12 1.44 1.13 0.89 
Setting the following standard : 195-60-14 as tires, and using the 2
following rpm ranges we have this

     3.67   4.20    3.67    4.20
     @3000  @3000   @5000   @5000
1st  16MPH  14MPH   27MPH   23MPH
2nd  26MPH  23MPH   44MPH   38MPH
3rd  39MPH  34MPH   65MPH   57MPH
4th  49MPH  43MPH   83MPH   72MPH
5th  63MPH  55MPH   105MPH  92MPH

cheers
