Should you REGEAR your NT after you Turbo it?

[ANARKY]

I've read that Eclipse GST's have a different gear ratio to take advantage of the extra power....well after you turbo your nt should you go with a gear ration like the GST?

Here are the ratios of 97-99 fwd eclipse n/t and turbo:

2.0 4G63T

1st 3.090
2nd 1.833
3rd 1.217
4th 0.888
5th 0.741
reverse 3.166
Final 4.153

2.0 420A n/t

1st 3.54
2nd 2.13
3rd 1.36
4th 1.03
5th 0.81
reverse 3.42
final 3.94

Here are the ratios of 97-99 fwd eclipse n/t and turbo:
2.0 4G63 n/t

1st 3.54
2nd 2.13
3rd 1.36
4th 1.03
5th 0.81
reverse 3.42
final 3.94

That can't be right because the 97-99 n/t did not have a 4G63

I'm pretty sure some people have been installing the 3.55 final from a certain model of Neons into their NVT-350s (which is the MTX on the 2GNTs FYI). Not a super big mod as far as I've heard, so I guess the answer to your question is no, you don't need to regear your NT if you turbo.
