    One thing you guys might want to try before regearing is an exhaust cam retard and an intake manifold spacer.

    Been happy so far after installing mine without a tune yet (which should be considerably better afterwards). Headwinds aren't as much of an issue in 6th, tho I still have to drop it to 5th on medium+ inclines.

    Cheaper solution to regearing.

    @Thatbassguy wasn't the only one who had some fun this weekend. A few of us got together for an impromptu Sunday overnighter. Can you guess where?
