  13. that sucks... but if it was going to happen anywhere it's not a bad spot...
  14. 2nd - 4th have all effectively been shortened by the s80 final drive (improving acceleration), and the longer 5th is better for cruising. sure about the change points.. I wondered about that myself. I think that it's assumed that it's the best time to change gear for maximising power and torque, and improving acceleration Thing is though it doesn't know what engine it is, and obviously we'd take it up to the red line pretty much. reckon that iabs opening around 5-5.5k would be ideal to still get decent economy on day to day driving, but give you more uumph when you need it.
  15. gear ratios from the team m factory gear calculator... left are standard taken from the cars.homenetcs site, and right are what I've got. and the graphs showing the ratios... red lines are s9b and blue is mine. according to this, at 110, the change from 4th to 5th would be a drop from 8300rpm to around 5300rpm.
  16. looking lush up there Dave... tasty pics to
