An old thread, but here's some interesting data. This is all from the Acura website, listed speeds are at 7200 rpm using stock 2005 RL tire sizes.
Gearing looks great.
Code:
2005 RL
Gear Ratio Spd TQ mult
1 2.700 37.1 15.4
2 1.570 63.7 9.0
3 1.070 93.5 6.1
4 0.690 145.0 3.9
5 0.480 208.5 2.7
F 5.704
F2 1.240
FD 4.600
Kenso, was I right to multiply the FD with F2? I wasn't sure if they were listing the FD as including the secondary or not. If I was wrong the gearing is:
Code:
