Well I don't know what model it is yet, i'm still waiting on the email. But playing with a gear calculator shows that it won't make much of a difference unless its from the turbo cs.

But now that I have a tach, it makes me realize that the transmission I have really isn't geared very low (by gas standards anyways). I guess those bigger rims and tires that Tom put on were one of the best things to do to coax a bit more mpg out of the car.

an audi GT coupe is basically the same thing as a 5000 right? like front end wise and drivetrain and everything. it had a gas 5 cyl with a 5 speed manual.

If I'm not mistaken, CGTs (Coupe GTs) are pretty rare; it'd be criminal to cannibalize one, in my opinion. Yeah, they were five cylinder five speeds and yeah, the gearbox would swap over in place of an Audi 5k 5-speed.
