Hey Hombre...
Get a list of ratios for the T5 (I don't have them handy, but they're around).
To find road speed from engine speed use the following formula:
(RPM x Tire Diameter(inches))
----------------------------- = MPH
336 x Rear Ratio x Trans Ratio
For example...
2500 RPM x 32 inch tires
------------------------------- = 8 mph at 2500 rpm
336 x 4.57 rear x 6.48 (1st gear)
From this you can figure out how fast you can go in each gear. It should tell you whether you can pull that boat up the mountain or go down the freeway without earplugs.
Good luck
Current fleet (subject to change w/o notice) \'49 GMC 3/4-Ton , 60 Austin Healey Frog-eye Sprite (some assembly required), 2011 Dodge Avenger, 2015 Jeep Cherokee. No, they don't all run. My other ride is a (B737)no, (B767)no, A320.... Update... was Embraer E190, now Boeing B787. Knowledge is a wonderful thing, but ignorance means you don't know you can't do something.
