there are two F15's..... well, two F15cr

One has a long final drive, the other shorter....

not sure on what is what....

but the 1.6 16v sports would reline around 118 i think, and the early GSI would do just short on 130

yes..... but the FINAL RATIO in the gear box allowed for a higher speed at 6250rpm or whatever.....

its all down to gearing
