Default Is this the stock 4.1 FD?
So I just got an AP1 and at 3k rpm I'm only at 55mph. At 4k rpm Im only at 75mph, is this the stock 4.1 FD? I usually shift around 2-3k rpm so at 25mph, Im already at 4th gear

Your AP1 is much more fun, even for just getting the groceries, if you shift at 4000 to 5000.

the ap1 has a 9k rpm redline, gas isn't that bad that you'd sacrifice fun by shifting at 2k rpm, open that beach up! my timid driving is shifting at 4k rpm at minimum...

More like if you don't shift at 4k, these civics nowadays will actually go faster from a spot light.
