Hehe...yup, Ron and I call mine the "SuperTranny"
It's a combination of a "4k" final drive (3.94), with the benefit of the
larger 16v main shaft, and then I threw in a 0.76 5th. Don't forget the
bolt kit and a Peloquin diff. kit (or a Quaife would be best!)
I tell ya, my 1.8 16v mk2 is so much more fun to drive now!
