The mid-engine Mini is done - I've been driving it since Christmas. Not surprisingly, with 13" wheels the engine's reving right along thank you. For example, 60mph ~ 3700rpm. It doesn't really bother me, except first gear is nearly useless, good only for standing starts on really steep hills.

During 0-60mph testing, I run out of revs (fuel cut off) right at 58mph Since I have to shift at 58mph it results in "only" a 4.6sec time. *If* I could get it to 60 in second it would give me a 3.9sec time! Does it really matter? No... but I'm wondering what gearing is out there. I know there are lots of *higher* ratios, but that doesn't help. I need one about 10% lower then the 4.27 that's in there now, or around a 3.8.

My question is, anyone know the ratios of other Prelude/Accords that fit and that are numerically lower? Thanks.
