Hi,
I can't use the chart as i don't have the right program on my computer.
Can someone work it out for me.
I've gat a 98 blade engine,3.54 diff and 205 60 13 tyres.
What does it say the top speed is.
Thanks
Tony
not sure but from experience id say about 115 mph
my old blade car with a 3.62 diff and 195/50/15 indicated 125mph, would imagine you will be somewhere close to that.
At the rev limiter ~125, the last 5mph make you grit your teeth to get there.
Perfect ratio for a blade engine as max RPM is max speed, a lower diff and I doubt you will go any faster
pretty much all struggle beyond the 125 mark car engines included its something to do with the brick shape
