GST & GS gear ratios (have searched)

[AdrenilineCrash]

what are the gear ratios for the two trannies? i had a 93 7bolt and i maxed out 2nd gear at about 50 mph. i now have a 92 talon 6bolt with a gst tranny and i was going about 67-70 mph at 6k rpm. are the gear ratios differt? or is the fact that one is a 6 bolt and the other is a 7 bolt? thanks!

yea the gear rations for turbo and non turbo are different, and ratios for fwd and awd are also different, i have a 7 bolt 93 tsi awd and im pretty sure i can do 50 in 1st, i top out 3rd at about 100
im not sure if 6 and 7 bolts are geared differently, but if u bought the car used u can never rule out the possibility of the previous owner putting a jdm trans with the wrong final drive in it, there are jdm tranies with the correct final drive ratio, but there are a dozen others with the wrong one that will also bolt right up

If you go to the DSM FAQ page, under drivetrain, there is a link for gear ratios.
