3k rpm at 70 mph isnt all that high for an economy car. the civic manual is higher than that, as are many other manual eco cars.

i think all a 6th gear would accomplish is closer gear ratios but not much of a reduction in top gear rpm's.

Gots the TRD and feels no difference.. just inside my heart smiles like

because it knows that it ain't just base stock rolla anymore.. I know I know it sounds probably sad (having stock base with only TRD filter and being so happy) but I don't care MY ROLLA IS ROARING THROUGH THA TRAFFIC!!! hahaha My imagination compensates whatever my rolla isn't

Well stalling is still there i know I can feel that I'm really close to.. but I think I got more confidence now
