Replaced the Evo with...
#76
^^I agree... kinda. It's actually LBP (Laguna Blue Pearl) for S2K's lol
As for the gears, the only issue I have with the gears is that the car is already at 3750 at 70 mph in 6th. With gears it would be more like 4050ish at 70mph which is pretty high for highway cruising. I'll have to see how much highway driving it's looking like I'll end up doing and go from there. That's last on the list though at the moment so I've got some time to think about it

the engine can take it.
it doesnt hurt gas milage.
what is the problem?
i have experience with 92TypeR on www.honda-tech.com drives a 1997 CW ITR with 4.9 gears with a 12.5:1 CR 2.0 liter and at 60 mph it is around 4800rpm(approx)... his MPG actually got better with the FD, and we took a road trip to the honda college drove over 1000 miles acrossed the country at 80mph which is in vtec( his vtec is at 5400rpm).
so like i said above. what are u worried about? =\
so supercharge, and love it. but if you dont want to do that, go ahead and get the gears. your gas milage will be fine, and your car will feel like it has more tq with the changed FD.
