petert 607 Posted February 9, 2007 (edited) With all this renewed discussion about BE3 ratios, I thought you might be interested in hearing about the gearbox from a Super Tourer. A friend of mine has just the bought car. Note the percentage difference between the gears! So close. 1st 3.357:1 2nd 2.562:1 23.6% 3rd 2.117:1 17% 4th 1.85:1 12.6% 5th 1.59:1 14% 6th 1.434:1 10% It comes with two diffs: 3.294:1 3.176:1 As a comparison, the overall ratio with the longest diff is lower than anything you can find in a Peugeot ie 6th gear - 1.434 x 3.176 = 4.55:1 205 5th - 0.865 x 4.7 = 4.06:1 T Edited February 9, 2007 by petert Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
