Technically would help with fuel economy a little too no? (highway wise, drop revs at highway speeds)

@mrk1 can chime in on the 300whp.. I'm sticking NA and will never see the likes of that much power..

I am right in the 300 area and its a blast with the 3.91, the touch lower rpms on the highway is a nice touch.

Thanks! I think that's what turns a lot of people off on this kind of thing. If you can't do it yourself it gets expensive quick.

I get the longer gears for boost but, would the fd drop times say in a 1/4 mile run? If you still shift twice would you cross the line at a faster mph? I am about to have my first FI car so this is new to me.

If you're shifting the same number of times I don't think it would help you. If it cut out a shift, then it would definitely help because you would stay in boost longer and spend less time off power. |
