FS: most killer gauges (not mine)

[juliemac57 at hotmail.com (Julie Macfarlane)]

The size of the motor or the number of valves has very little to do with top 
speed. That just supplies the HP to move the car.
Its all in the transaxle.

In my 8 I could get speed with the FF transaxle (long ratio), but in the 16v 
with 2Y (short ratio), I just get to speed faster
