In general higher numerical gearing gives more push at the same speed, but for less range.

Changing cwp has the same effect as changing tire heights,

Here's a comparison that was handy comparing 2 rear tire sets on an SC, the shorter 275/35 x15 gives more push(AKA acceleration) in each gear at every speed, but the top speed in each gear is also shorter, aero affects are also reflected in the curves


here the data only reflects a change in CWP from 3/444 to 4.00
