Posted 18/10/04 09:29 AM Share Posted 18/10/04 09:29 AM If you can give me the ratios and diff gear in your car and what tyres your running (be specific) I can tell you what you should expect.BTW, at 100 the T is actually going 97, and at 110, 106 is the real speed according to both wheels and motor.......All of my figures have been done at 6000 rpm, and I know that the standard I6 only gets to 5800 but meh...If you want a more realistic figure just tell me what limit.... I could write a VB6 program if you guys wanted, and it would work everything out for us.... Could be handy and good for future reference and comparisons......

Nice offer - but it isn't really rocket science to work it out with the formula I posted ... most people own a calculator, or at least a computer with one included, or a phone with one included, or a watch with one included, anyhow you get my drift???

If I had the numbers, I'd do it my self, pretty simple Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/13353-new-mk2-6-speed-ratios/page/3/#findComment-178334 Share on other sites More sharing options...
