Turbo mk1. 5 speed box. Torsen LSD but which one?
15" rims with 50 profile tyre. Doing approx 55mph at 3k rpm. Any advice appreciated.
Thanks,
Ed

Ok cheers. Mine is turbo and first gear is a whoosh and blink before grabbing second and motorway is a bit frenetic. I don't want to blunt acceleration too much but taller gearing would potentially be better all around. Perhaps mines a 4.1 but did seem to be 3000 rpm at 58mph ish on 15" rims/50 profile tyre?

( I'm on 4.1 with a 5 speed with a turbo and very happy. )

This answers all your questions.... I’ve got a 4.1 which I recon is spot on with the 5sp. |
