You won't see a big difference with only that tranny change. The drag coefficient of the car is quite high and the difference will be less than 10mph. BUT, that tranny is great for race applications. Tough.

well i mean like, what can the tranny actually handle for the top speed?

im picking one up along with a 4.6 supermodular from dss racing (hopefully) depending on how much it'll cost to get it up here (western canada) since im not familiar with any shops around here for performance.

the tko 500 would probably have a better top end just because of the gear ratios right? (taller) the 600 is shorter.

or am i mistaken :x
