I think everyone would agree that the AP1 tranny would work best with the AP2 motor. and vise versa.

That's what my plans are here. Figure go with the AP1 trans and maybe get the 4.57s.

f20kills how is the car with the tranny and 4.77s? any input on that set up...

I love it First and second will go by FAST

I was never worried about driving on the freeways at 5k rpm
If you are...its not a good gear.

As for the track, I never found my self shifting too much ( the tracks Ive been to) with the AP1 motor.

20th will be my first track day with the 2.2, AP1 tranny and 4.77.
Ill be at the Streets and what I think will happen is i wont be shifting into 2nd gear as much. Ill just stay in 3rd for some of the semi faster turns.

Ill give an up date then
