AP2 w/4.57's
Anybody have experience with this setup? Better/Worse shifting areas? Did you get faster times? Slower?
Basically what I'm wondering is if it causes places where there's an upshift followed by a downshift directly after or places where you'd need to bounce off the revlimiter to avoid that unnecessary upshift. Basically anything that would slow me down.

I know someone tested it with two different cars (read it), but running the same tires and wheels on stock cars and was 2 seconds slower in the car with 4.57. I had them in mine, and found that I was shifting in bad spots. I've gone back to 4.1 if that tells you anything.

4.57's are slower for me (NA... 1:51... not entirely fast but fast enough to know that it slows me down)
The worst for me is the 5th gear shift at the end of the straight for a second...
