[QUOTE="Tofufi, post: 599864, member: 38"] I've got a stock 1600 engine except for twin 36 DRLAs. Fitting a 5 speed gearbox gave me both the ability to comfortably do 65mph instead of 55mph, but also a useful improvement in fuel economy too (~15% improvement on longer runs). My 5th gear is now similar to that of a freeway flyer/6 rib gearbox. My 4th gear currently is the same as a standard gearbox 4th gear. I rarely use 4th gear above 40mph, as it's just not tall enough for higher speeds IMO :) [/QUOTE]
