Re: TRE - Taller 5th Gear
You really don't ever go into 5th gear when drag racing a DSM. Even the very fast guys don't have to with the help of high revlimiters and larger diameter tires. The stock 5th gear is perfect for acceleration though, if you are do have to go into it on high mph highway pulls. Some cars when you go into 5th, it more of a cruising/gas mileage gear and the car falls out of the spooled up turbo powerband. A long 5th gear would probably be useful for a Bonneville salt flat car and for better gas mileage/less noise on the highway.
