How can that be?? That's what my car used to rev at with 2.73's (TWO point seven three) but now with 3.73's (THREE point seven three) the engine is revving "roughly" ~2600 rpm to do 70 mph. 80 mph it's turning about ~2900 rpm, or thereabouts. Heck, even at 60 mph, the engine is still at ~2200 rpm, so HOW can your engine ONLY be revving ~2000 - 2100 at 70 mph with 3.73's?!?!?!?! Are you sure you don't have a six speed and you're referring to revs in 6th gear?!

 

positive and im certain mine IS accurate as i use ATAP. dont you know the tach is off my ~300 rpm
this of course is in OD (hence no 6 spd).

 

2.73 gear A4 stock stall, stock 16" tires

80mph@2000

 

Are you sure you re-programmed your SPEEDOMETER when you changed the gears?! Seriously dude, that ain't right?! I agree the tachs may not be 100% accurate, and I would even believe +/- 300 rpm, but you're talking almost ~1000 rpm lower at 70 mph than mine!! Trust me, I know what the numbers were before, and I did the math, AND re-programmed with Hypertech, and everything is reading what I predicted and what it should. If your speedo still thought you had 2.73's, it would read ~70 mph when your revving ~2000 rpm in OD, but I guarantee you that's not right................it just doesn't make sense?!:blah:

 

dude, are you kidding me? 'yea, i did all these mods and didnt bother using the ls1 edit' (listed in sig). it is about 500 RPM's higher prior to the converter locking. dunno what to tell ya dude. get over it....
i wouldnt post something if i was pulling it out of my ***.

Ditto for mine as well.

 

Whoa man! I'm not trying to start a flame war or anything!? It just seems weird to me that there's that much difference? Oh well, as long as it all works, who really cares right?
