Default gears and raised limmiter from cam..?


ok im a bit foggy about how this is gonna work....ive got a moser on the way with 4.11 gears...now this will lower how much speed each gear has...BUT i have a X1 cam on the way..and prolly a 6700 redline..which will give each gear back what it lost from the rear end...

OK...does this mean i wont lose much if any top end acceleration?
acceleration should be improved alot all over correct?

your acceleration will go up (pull faster to the top of each gear) but you will not be going AS FAST as you would be at the top of your final gear

i know my top speeds will decrease SLIGHTLY...but the gears and the new limmiter will make it basically a new car right?

(im only loosing a bit of gear, 124mph in 4th)
