RPM at 80MPH in 5th gear on a 4th gen Vtec
 
Just wondering what your rpm is at when you're in 5th at 80mph. I have a 93 VTEC and i'm at 4200 rpms. I think this is high?

i dont think its trick as much as the stock tach is incorrect, look at a VAFC , it much more accurate.later

Stock tach is pretty accurate until you get into higher rpms.

4800 rpm @ 80 mph with 16" rims and 40 series tires. Not a good long distance cruiser unless you're deaf.

That's what i'm doin. https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...es/emdgust.gif Great gear ratio for the track though.

Re: RPM at 80MPH in 5th gear on a 4th gen Vtec (93h22avtec)
 
its normal. 4gen VTECs are geared really high. The car really could stand to use a 6th gear in my opinion...

If I remember correctly I'm at 4,000 rpm at 75 mph. Not sure what that'd be at 80 mph.

Re: RPM at 80MPH in 5th gear on a 4th gen Vtec (93h22avtec)
 
is the jdm tranny the same as the usdm tranny? i mean for the 93-96 jdm and usdm? my jdm tranny is at 3700-3800 at 80mph, the last time i was at my buddy car 93vtec lude with stock usdm, at 75mph he was at 4k rpm,
