1. Shifting would still be the same if the gear fits properly.

2. The amount of labor probably isn't worth it if you want to save gas. I mean if you really did, go trade in your car for a corolla or civic, etc.

i have a p2a8 put of an 02 accord i think it is, and i think its an f series trans. the gears are long as sh*t, on the parkway in 5th 70mph=about 2500 rpms

higher speed?

Yeah okay, just fyi you need a lot more power to get higher than the quoted 150ish mph.

Nevermind, I can discount this thread already.
