In a perfect world, or with a power glide tranny that could be acomplished... but with our ZF/Getrag trannys the only thing we can really do is adjust our final drive.. we could likely take a 2.9x final drive from something like an E46 (non-M) and maybe get 5-7mph more out of 1st.. but still with 650rwhp first, with any ratio.. will be pretty worthless.
