See, the problem people don't realize is this, here, a 92-95 Civic sells for between 3k and 5k.

I don't have the funds to put into another car. And it's completely unreasonable to spend money on a new daily, when I'll be traveling 60 miles a day at the very most.

What I'm mainly asking is the loss of acceleration really bad, and I'd like to have an experienced opinion on the results. Not an opinion on what the car was made for. I know very well that 7's get rather poor mpg's. I'm not debating that at all.

So, to clear things up, can someone with experience having the 3.9 gears in an S4 N/A 5 speed tell the results and offer a comparison on the 3.90 versus the 4.10? How different is the acceleration with the 3.90 versus the 4.10?

Like I said, I won't be blasting through the gears, just to have to hammer the brakes to slow down. Triple T is the only one who has really offered any sort of real experience, but the difference between his car and mine is night and day.
