Swap in ap2 tranny

Shorter 1-5 equal to a 4.3 with a longer 6th

Better acceleration and the same mpg and low rpm when you cruise on the highway can't go wrong. And honestly with the price of J's and the install it may even be cheaper.

well if all goes planned im picking up a CR tomorrow, and if not its a 09...gearing an ap2 would be kinda pointless?
i didnt know this was only for ap1

lol i feel dumb

It's not pointless at all it will still give you a lot more pick up that's for sure a 4.4 would be a nice setup for an ap2 tranny.

GSteg

You can still put a different final gear in the AP2. Personally, I would want to get flashpro and raise the rev limiter higher to compensate for the shorter gear. That way you don't compromise too much on top speed in each gear.

i fell in love with 4.4 from the video i posted above, but im wondering how it would affect my freeway driving... not too bad i hope?
and i wonder how much of difference acceleration it would be from a digg
lol

sro_alvaro

thats another question... for ap2 we run flashpro? like the 8th gens?

GSteg

06+ has the ability to run flashpro. 04-05 AP2 has to go a different route.

speedjunky01

Flash pro and a dyno tune would benefit the car muuuuvh more then the diff and it would be cheaper then shelling out for J's

its good to hear opinions like these...
i guess im just trying to be different... theres alotta people who im sure have this mod, but id prefer to not take the average I/H/E... lol
