well the good thing with this gearbox is that on highways u ll have less fuel consumption with standard 100- 110 speed cz of the shorter 4,5 gears the engine doesnt need too much "press" to raise rpm and u can keep more easy the standard speed that u want on a trip !!! my pocket got saved by this !!!

many thanks
