I was thinking about talking with ZF to provide a polished helical and straight gear sets for our transmission that would make:
1st gear more usable
6th gear 1.0 drive ratio instead of overdrive
making the gears close ratio more than it is now
I am doing the calculation to make each gear shift on redline 8K, drop RPMs to 5500 RPM in a sense that everytime you shift the car is climbing the revs similarly to a ferrari 458 and you are never away from the 6-8K RPM range where the S54 (boosted) is in its most brutal power delivery zone.
Is what i said interesting to anyone over here?
Please note that making 1st gear with a lower drive ratio and 2nd gear with a slightly higher drive ratio will bring those 2 gears closer and synchro effort drastically down which means that you might be able to shift 1st-2nd drastically faster
