My mk2 Jetta weighs in at about 2500 lbs, with a 3.94 final and a .75 overdrive it's still peppy enough, running a 1.9 though. Wouldn't want any more gear than that......... Ballpark of 2000 rpm @ 80 kmh/50mph, 3000 rpm@120kmh/75mph
I'm wondering why the "spec fuel consumption" is higher at one thousand RPM than at two. Maybe it is compensating for idle? The "thing" that starts fueling the engine once the rpm drops below a certain level while in gear.Or am I missing something?
