I can't totally verify 3rd gear because I'm NA, and I run out of track first, and still have 2800rpms left of it. I hit 3rd at the 1000' mark. If I could get a turbo kit that would spool to full boost at 2800 rpms, this setup would be crazy sick. Probably wouldn't last very long, though.

Yep i tested my HX today and it seems to be the exact same gearing as what you listed. 1st goes a tad over 40, 2nd about 75, and i took 3rd to about 115. This means i can run the 1/4 mile in 3 gears, and my gas mileage will go up. 1/8 mile times might suck though.

Oh well i didn't have much of a choice and you can't beat 100 bucks for a tranny you pickup the same day you need it. I just buy them as i break them...or actually as my friends break them when they drive my car. I learned my lesson, no more letting anyone under the age of 40 drive my car.
