Now I know what you guys were talking about with the talllllll gearrrrsss on the vx / cx trannies! I came from an lx manual to a vx, check my rpm / speeds (custom econo - light above 4500 rpm, not CEL above 5500 rpm)

BEFORE:

75mph, about 3000 rpm


80mph, about 3100rpm




AFTER:

80mph, about 2600rpm


about 71mph, about 2400rpm

I'll put up a couple more speeds / mph's when they finally upload!!
