TRE sells those. The thought of this high speed gear has crossed my mind, but then I figure 140+ is probably already pushing my luck.
I don't think anyone should under estimate the obnoxious gear whine produced from the straight cut gears anytime you decide to cruise in 5th gear. Any highway and freeway driving for long periods of time my make for a mind numbing experience.

100 mph...
Nate: "43 counts of knock, Marcus." Marcus: "Gotta beat Spy." 110 mph... Nate: "Still at 43, just a heads up." Marcus: "He's still in it." 120 mph... Nate: "..." Marcus: "I got him...I got you Spy, I got your number!" 130 mph... Nate: (turning white) "43." Marcus: "I don't care!! I'm whoopin' Spy's ass!" 140 mph... Nate: (waiting for a piston to fly through the hood)"Fyi, there's a sane driver in your lane" Marcus: "I see him"(clamps on the binders at the last possible millisecond) sane person speed... Nate: (amazed at the beating a 4g63 can take and keep on truckin') Marcus: (amazed at how much wood he gets from high speed. Thinking about buying TRE's high speed 5th for its obvious Viagra-like potential.) Haha, just messin' with ya, buddy!

Haha! I believe so. And I think the race started in 5th gear, or maybe the top of 4th.

That thing has never been pre-modded!!! If my UICP, MBC and large exhaust (your leaking exhaust at the DP) count then so does yours!  Remember we're talking about a FWD gear set compared to an AWD gear set that equals about three car lengths in the FWD's favor on a roll with similar power levels in each car. How much different from stock was my Talon over the GST anyway? Hmmm....some porting and water injection maybe? Helping run those awesome 43 knock counts no less. Still running the same turbo, injectors and lack of fuel control that the GST was running I believe.Hmmmm...That's strange. How did that AWD with similar mods pass the GST in 5th gear no less?!?!

QUOTE (spyonu2007 @ Mar 3 2004, 05:25 AM) The gst didnt have a bigger fuel pump, like the tsi, didnt have the upperintercooler pipe like the tst, didnt have the huge throttle body and compressor outlet elbos that the tsi had, and didnt have a boost controller on it like the tsi had... The GST was bone stock EXCEPT for an exhaust leak... So put that in your pipe and take a big drag off of it. You beat a stock GST with a 24psi alchol&water injected, purpose built race car.. I am so glad! Hows that for a run on... As I recall I jumped the gun and did a freaky deaky dutch run on ya, and it took a fair amount for you to catch up... care to do that again? Oh wait... br500 stroker motor doesnt do me justice on that one. Hopefully this isn't some sort of competition?! If you want to say you won that's cool with me buddy. Lets review Nates rundown with added numbers for Spy.Spy initiates the Dutch run @ 90mph  Marcus running in front @ 70mph and Spy flies by   3rd and the pedal drops. 95/80 . 100/90 and shifting to 4th . Spy @ 105 mph Marcus @ 100 mph... Nate: "43 counts of knock, Marcus." Marcus: "Gotta beat Spy." Spy @ 110 mph Marcus @ 110 mph... Nate: "Still at 43, just a heads up." Marcus: "He's still in it." Spy @ 115 mph Marcus @ 120 mph...and shifting to 5th Nate: "..." Marcus: "I got him...I got you Spy, I got your number!" Spy @ 125mph Marcus @ 130 mph... Nate: (turning white) "43." Marcus: "I don't care!! I'm whoopin' Spy's ass!" Spy falling back Marcus @140 mph... Nate: (waiting for a piston to fly through the hood)"Fyi, there's a sane driver in your lane" Marcus: "I see him"(clamps on the binders at the last possible millisecond) . . . BTW - A full wieght DSM with a couple of larger pipes on it don't make a purpose built race car. And if we are into building purpose built cars and can only muster 12's then we better stick to calling them street cars. Besides if windshield washer fluid is so awesome I wouldn't be running any knock.Actually it all apeared almost even as I crept back up to the FWD and I didn't gain hardly anything until I was solidly in 5th.

I just wish someone would keep carrying the 14b torch. Stick with it dude. You don't need no stinking big turbos! -------------------- In Loving memory of David T Crebo
