I'm going to dyno my car this weekend and I was wondering what gear is best to use for the 3 pulls. I read somewhere that the best one to use is the one closest to 1:1 ratio. In my case, this appears to be 5th gear (see below). This was the only information I was able to find so I wanted to get confirmation from one of you guys here. I just want to make sure I get my money's worth and don't waste a pull on a gear that won't put out as much power. I could be skeptical because 5th gear seems kinda high when other cars I've seen are usually 3th or 4th gear pulls. Then again, those only had 4 or 5-speeds. This one has 7. Yes, my car is automatic... lol.

1st: 4.924
2nd: 3.194
3rd: 2.043
4th: 1.412
5th: 1.000
6th: 0.862
7th: 0.771
Reverse: 3.972
Final drive ratio: 3.357

everyones different. im over the modding thing so i bought a fast car with big brakes, 19's, nice tires, lsd, spoilers, etc so i dont have to touch it. its my daily driver and i dont care for the stick shift thing.

yea, it's manumatic with paddles. it can be shifted at the shifter too. i'll probably post up dynos and videos if anyone cares. ive never had the 6gc community throw haterade on me in 6 years so im a little hesitant now. lol. i still love you guys.

How are we hating? If you like it, then that's on you and it's cool. But if you post a thread, don't expect anyone to NOT post what they feel about it or what they think, cuz you wanted to share what you felt or thought about it.
