taller tranny

[MetroMPG]

Yes - I effectively gained another gear.

Hmm, just like some people think shorter gearing is better for FE, some people think taller gearing is better for going fast...

Anyway, how clean is that old tranny? I want a picture!

Accelerating fast, or top speed? Hmmm?

The photo at the top of this thread is the Actual Unit. I cleaned it up some since that photo, but it's still a little greasier than the box I took out.

Enough GS! must do some work today...

Accelerating fast, wackos!

[JanGeo]

NOPE the top speed is achieved when the gearing allows the engine to reach maximum HP at or before it - the Geo I have is geared for redline at 130-135mph and it only reached that a few times HA just kidding terminal speed was 93.7mph GPS measured - speedo needle was straight down way past 85mph max . . . . still pretty good.

Yes, but we're not discussing top speed anyway, besides, my car is geared for a 210mph top speed but I'm not showing that off,

Ah...so that's how I managed it in Forsa for the XBox...(205+ mph CRX) - I basically tuned up an HF tranny.

Either that or you were revving to 10k,

Awesome. Mine does too...just need to get the AC fixed so I'll WANT to drive it.
