Bravo!
Loving the 3.91 rear gears. What kind of rpms you run @80mph in 6th?

Think you sir! I’m doing 3500rpms @ 80mph and it feels very comfortable and natural because these motors spin so smoothly. A side benefit is I never have to downshift on the highway it pulls really nicely in 6th at all highway speeds.
I was nervous about the RPMs maybe not being good for the engine. Then I thought, my 2009 car spent the first 3 years of its life in Germany and was imported to the US in 2012 with 27k miles on it. So it likely already spent many hours doing ~100mph on the autobahn at 3500rpms (with factory gearing) so it should be ok lol
