Stu Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Why would you want a short ratio box on an engine that has a shorter power band? I've posted up the gear ratios on here a couple of times in the past, have a search - should answer your questions. Most of the questions posted in this mechanical forum these days have already been asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebellious Posted September 6, 2010 Author Share Posted September 6, 2010 i imagine it has come up time and time again, if it was a fiesta, id know, but it int lol hence the question, i know everyone raves about the diesel box having a taller 5th, but in your opinion, would i lose out slightly on the 1st to 3rd acceleration, it being closer ratio on the diesel?
