Gear Vendors overdrive

like stated many times here... it depends on application whether or not its worth the money to the buyer. if your only putting 400-500 hp who cares if it will hold 900-1600 hp?

for someone like me who doesn't have any desire to put out more then 400-500 hp and am more interested in street cruising a trans with a better first gear and better OD ratio is a better choice for me. if the GV was only $1500 NEW then maybe i would compromise and go with a shittier first gear and OD ratios.. but for the money i'd rather go with the better ratios that suit my needs better...

again it all depends on the application. not sure whats so difficult to understand about that...

Yes, the arrogant one is back in full form! Who gives a crap about how much HP it can handle if it can't do what you intend to use it for or fit your app or desire (not enough OD ratio). It certainly can't handle some things and GV even says so! LIKE>>>>>>

No Double OD in towing applications with manual trans pickups. Most guys are interested in fuel economy when wanting to run a GV. Not spending 3K so they can drive with the trans in 4th gear and GV it, maybe if you are towing the top end of the weight range. 6-7K is nothing on most of the 3/4ton+ diesel PU's = WASTE OF MONEY!

3K for a .08 improvement on anything slower than a 8.50ish car is a big waste of money as well IMO.
