Im curious to know.

When you are cruising on the highway at 70 mph... how many rpms does your tach tell you? If you dont know, run out and try it. I really need to know something STAT.

So you all are doing about 4k RPM @ 70 mph in 5th gear right?

Damn, I was hoping it wasnt the case. You see, when Im cruising at 70mph in 5th, my EGT's go nuts. Honda f***ed up by not making a 6th final gear. I wish there was a 6-speed I could bolt to my motor[&o]. Worse case i just have the final gear switched out.

Is a type-R tranny 6 speed? If not the gearing should at least be better suited for more power right?
