1.6 Box On 1.9 8valve

Recommended Posts

Anulfo

Hi just like a bit of info please guys.Literature that i have on the 1.9 8 valve 205 GTi (factory spec 3.69 FD)says that in 1st gear the car is capable of 6.2MPH per 1,000RPM thus giving 43.4MPH at 7,000rpm.Then in 5th 20.9MPH per 1,000rpm giving a theoretical top speed of 130.9MPH.

My question is does anyone know what these figures would be if i were to replace the 1.9 box with the box from a 1.6?

In 1st at 7000rpm its about 30mph. In 5th you get about 115mph. I have not worked this out with the dark art of maths it's what my car does.

Search and you will find !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

There are lots of posts with links to gearbox spread sheets that will give you all the info you need. I think there is one on www.trackmonkey.co.uk (just don't mention the owner )
