   I think gouldy is refering to the guides in the FAQ sections, they have a lot of information in them, including the gear ratios for each gearbox:

   the 1.0/1,1 gearbox is very similar to the vts box, obviously some ratios are slightly different, final drive is different and the diff size is different.

    You really don't understand, the 1.1 box has shorter ratios to aid the smaller engine accelerate through the gears, hence why people say it's nippy.

    Please stop using text talk. If you can't be bothered to type properly you shouldn't type at all

    a vts box in a 1.1 will make is slower.
    but a 1.1 box in a vts will make it faster.
    1.1 box = shorter gearing or somthink
    vts box= longer.
    
    nout to do with the rpm. its to do with the ratios
