15-20mpg from swapping my trans? i dont think it will help that much, i was thinking it would give me about 3 more mpg maybe... lol but idk. BTW my friend who is the machanic doesnt think that swapping the 5th gear or even swapping the transmition is a good idea. He says it isnt worth it but since he himself has never done that for one of his cars he is unsure of the advantages/disadvantages it would have and is willing to help me when i figure out what im going to do.
