915 is too short to use as a search term so i'll just ask...
What is the vehicle speed at redline in each gear for a 915 on a T4 with standard tires/wheels(205/50/15 or close). How much taller are the gears compared to a 901. Is the shift pattern that of a typical 5 speed where 1st is top left? What are the key benefits of upgrading to the 915 on a near stock T4 2.0L. Thanks |

QUOTE The benefits I'm thinking of might include: quicker shifts, less grinding, more accurate gates It is commonly said that the 901 shifts better than the 915 when installed in a 911 (with equivalent shift linkage). The 901 has smaller, lighter parts, so there is less inertia for the syncros to overcome. The two transmissions have the same (not great) syncro design, so there is no advantage there. |
