What are the shift speeds?
Hey everyone,
When I bought my rx7 the tach was acting up, so when it gave up I replaced it. I used a s5 non turbo tach with a higher redline than the stock TII gauge, so I replaced the face plate adjusted the needle to zero and gave it a go.
It looks like it working great, but I want to make sure it's not over revved.
I looked on the FSM, nothing and online.
I want to know the speed before redline of each gear.

V = (C*RPM)/(1056RnRf)
V = Vehicle Speed in mph
C = Tire circumference in inches (A stock S4 TII 205/55-16 is about 78.15639")
RPM = Engine RPM
Rn = Transmission Gear Ratio (See the FSM for gear ratios)
Rf = Final Gear (2.90, 4.10, or 4.33)
