pics of the final gears and close ratio gears are not working for me

[MFactory]

Thanks! Fixed

[kylerwho]

what is the stock final drive?

[MFactory]

Manual is 4.290, Auto is 4.560

[kylerwho]

so fuel economy could potentially be increased by installing the 4.47 final drive even though acceleration would suffer more than it already does.

[MFactory]

The 4.47 will increase acceleration over the 4.290, at the sacrifice of achievable top speed in each gear.

For fuel economy, it really just depends on your right foot

[kylerwho]

i was talking about the automatic using the 4.47 final instead of the 4.56 it is using now. mpg would be increased at the sacrifice of acceleration right?

[MFactory]

The final drives don't fit the AT's unfortunately, but yeah, that would be the case.

[kelsodeez]

any plans for internals? or a high flow head? i think i high flow head would sell really well.

[MFactory]

Not at the present moment, as transmission components is what we specialize in, but if the interest is there, we could discuss with our partner companies and see if they would be interested in developing something

[kylerwho]

cams are what everyone would like to have.

[Mr B]

As funny as it sounds, maybe making "ECO" gear ratios and final drives may sell better on here for you. Some people on the board are more into wanting a lower 5th gear to get better gas mileage and some turbo owners are complaining that 1st gear is useless with their new found power. Maybe longer gears will appease both sides of the fence?

[BlueCell]

As an FI owner, the First gear goes so fast, its almost useless. Second gear seems long in the fact that First goes so fast. The rest I don't care too much about. It is my DD.

[kylerwho]

to modify first you need to change the whole main shaft which is pretty pricey.

[BlueCell]

Yea, I figured it would be. I don't think I'd spend that much money just for gears. There's better things I can do with that money

[unFITone]

Interested in Front Roll Center Adjusters.
I'll be sure to check out your both at SEMA as well

[accordguyintake]

i agree.. i think 1st is a tad too short and im stock! 5th is okayy.. i learned now that the high revs are natural for hondas... its not too bad. My sister's RSX Type S has a 6 speed gearbox and i think it revs even higher than mine at 80mph although the redline is higher. The 1st to second gear change is horrible as well!... such a huge drop in rpm!

[JDMchris.com]

I think i may want the final drive!

[perfor.element]

i think for the most part the lower top speed higher acceleration will benefit the na peeps. but a higher top speed final drive will def benefit the fi peeps. decisions, decisions.
