I honestly don't think there's a better way to improve the performance of, and pleasure in driving, a 911.
This is super useful, thank you! Going to read through the rest of that thread today.

I see you were also playing with a gear calculator (I should build a comparison into my chart) — your 1.933 / 1.381 / 1.081 + longer 5th (mine is 0.758, longer still) mix is very similar to the two short-but-not-SCRS-short options I’m scoping out.

I have an email out to Matt Monson @ Guards (provided he doesn’t find this thread) to get his take + also confirm availability.
