This calculation is with the V6;
Km/h RPM (in Gears)
-------------------------------------------------
1 2 3 4 5
-------------------------------------------------
10 1530 826 574 419 344
20 3061 1652 1149 839 688
30 4591 2478 1723 1258 1031
40 3304 2298 1677 1375
50 4130 2872 2096 1719
60 4956 3447 2516 2063
70 5782 4021 2935 2407
80 4595 3354 2750
90 5170 3774 3094
100 5744 4193 3438
110 4612 3782
120 5031 4126
130 5451 4470
140 5870 4813
150 5157
160 5501
170 5845
These figures are maximum with the gearing i have at the moment, and with a taller diff, would only increase the top end by 20mph.
Kindest Regards,
Richard.

It only increases top speed a tad, but it affects the over all ratio through all gears and allows the torque to work. With a std escort ratio it would
be like riding a ten speed and having big strong legs but using the lowest gear, all they do is flail about, but in a higher gear the power pushes a
lot better.
Just like a RV8 is a waste of time with a low diff.

Well, it looks like the Crossflow then!

Ohh I'd say about THIS nice  Especially when you bolt a straight cut box onto one 
Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a
car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes
and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.

x flow. I have a heavy powerful engine, and I wish I had light and small. A lot of problems occur because of the lack of space left over after you put
a great lump in there.
