2nd 1.850
3rd 1.272
4th 0.954
5th .795
Final drive ratio 3.823

They look similar to me, why is your speed off?

yeah I'd say they're exactly the same. any ideas? I'm pretty sure my mech. used an OEM speed sensor designed for my car ('97), but is there a different speed sensor on the 5th gens? That's the only thing I can come up with...

I hate my 5th gear. 5th gear in my 2000 needs to be what the 6th gear is in the 2002's. There's no reason why I need to be at 3500rpm at 85mph. It has the power and torque to do that at 2500 or less.
