Proposed Gearing for the Cayman S - Go faster Quicker!!!!!
Hi everyone,
For those who have not seen the thread that started this conversation, we are going to be offering some new gear options for the Cayman S. I was thinking of starting with the following.
I would like to get some opinions on what I think will be a good starting place for our new Cayman gearing program here at Carquip.
Please let me know what you all think. I tried to address everyone's concerns regarding acceration as well as a taller 6th gear for better fuel economy.
ring and pinion is 10:41 4.10 ratio
1st remains stock at 3.31 42.367 mph redline
2nd shortens to 2.15 or 20:43 (tooth count) 65.180 mph redline
3rd shortens to 1.6 or 20:32 87.585 mph redline
4th shortens to 1.25 or 24:30 112.109 mph redline
5th shortens to 1.0 or 26:26 140.136 mph redline
6th lengthens to 0.75 or 40:30 186.849 mph redline and 3100 RPM @ 80 MPH
Let me know what you all think about this. I would have liked to put our gearchart on this page for you all but this site does not support excel documents.
I look forward to hearing your input.
Warmest Regards,
Erik Johnson
