I'm sick of searching - have been to Mazdausa.com and searched these forums but still haven't come across it. What ratio rear end are they using?



Thanks,

Jason

Ok, thanks. I was just wondering since I know my 4.10 in my S5 is useless since I've streetported the engine. In second gear I am at 60 before I hit the good strong powerband...



Hopefully I'll have a chance to play with an RX-8 tomorrow - there is one at our shop for some testing...
