- The opinions below seem quite extreme. The 3:31 gears should yield = approximately 3200RPM at 65MPH (with stock tire diameter), can't see how = this could be construed as unworkable. I suppose it is

- My sentiments exactly. I'm also running 3.31's with the original top loader in my MKI, and to keep the rev's reasonable, I'm confined to the slow lane at 50 - 55 mph. Sorta' dangerous on the intersta

- Hey Frank, how ya' doin? With my 3.31's, I'm running about 3,000 rpm (which is where I usually run it) at about 52 mph, and about 3200-3300 at 60. Hard to say for sure 'cause my speedo doesn't work a
