Yeah, I'm giving that consideration. I'm happy right now with acceleration and think a small drop will be acceptable. Still considering high cost of this route.

I like the idea of a sixth gear that drops RPMs down to AT level and for the type of money we're talking about here (perhaps ~$1200 installed) then maybe waiting for a third party to come out with a different sixth gear is an option. Sure, install of a different sixth gear should be more expensive but the actual gear itself should be relatively reasonable (although that is a wild ass guess).
