You probably have the stock gears. 3.27 I think.

Um, if your a manual in 5th gear at 70mph at 2100 rpms u have 3.73.

I'd be going 80mph at 2100rpm in 5th gear...With the stock 3.27's

SyNdicate is probably right. I was just assuming there was nothing done to the car.

assuming your speedo has been corrected for a gear change.. 3.55s would be your best bet for 70 at 2100.... but there are too many variables to sit here and guess based off your 2 bits of info alone.
