This car's development just blows my mind. I can only imagine how this car runs when you get on it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) It's like Dr. Jeckel & Mr. Hyde, being out or in boost respectively. 1st gear is a waste (too short) 2nd gear is crazy and too short. 3rd gear is amazing and rapidly sends you to 4th & 5th. You are now doing over 100mph in 5 seconds (if you can shift fast enough). Rolling on-ramps are especially fun. I highly recommend way too much power in a 914. |

I rather liked my v6 trans gear spacing for an acceleration standpoint. Third gear was a MONSTER. The close ratio 5 speed I have now I agree with your comments. Its just really closely geared. Fun for mountain driving on low boost though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
