Tranny comparison DSM, EVO VIII, EVO IX and EVO MR
Fourdorr,
Great post. I happen to annotate also the speeds on each gear of the cars that I had. I don't drive them to full speed on each gear but you can still calculate the speed/rpm for each gear based on a simple math equation.
What I find very very off is the speed on the Evo MR. Based on your data my Evo MR would get 152.7mph in 4th gear at 8000 rpm
if you get 105mph at 5500 rpm
you get x mph at 8000 rpm
so
x= 105 x 8000 divided by 5500= 152.7

Also is 4th gear on the EVO9 really limited to 106?

I havent found reliable information concerning the actual final drive for the MR. Is it 4.583 as reported by some car magazines or 4.853 as GEARS typed (maybe by transposition)?
