I'm going to the shop next week to get the gears done - currently 2.73 and I'm tired of this thing being a dog. I have both new sets in stock...
A few things to note:
- My Z-spec T5 has 2.95 first compared to 3.35 and .63 5th instead of .68
- Plan for around 300-330RWHP N/A for now (I'm not sure about boost anymore)
- Cam is 3000 to 6000rpm range
- Not a ton of highway, however I may do a 5 hour trip once a year and 2300-2400rpm doesn't scare me much at highway speeds
- Tires are a tad taller than stock but not by much
I do fear the gear a little but don't want to put 3.73 and regret it later on. Probably never will go to the 1/4 mile but would love to take it to a road course but it's mostly a weekend "romp on it" car to indulge in stupid activities when the cops aren't looking lol
EDIT... Gear confusion on my part lol
