I know our cars top out stock in 5th gear, but i was wondering at what point (if any) can you shift to 6th and not have it bog down? I'm assuming that w/ the right amount of horsepower and/or with different gears it'd be possible.

I think stock/lightly modded 03 04 cobras can do it b/c they have a shorter sixth gear, and taller rear gears or something like that, IDK maybe im way off base.

different gears would make it possible, but a hell of a lot more power would make it worth while...
