ssnowden Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 I never heard of this before, but I guess it's a thing. One transmission mounted backwards acting as an overdrive. https://youtu.be/ZqySYf5dWrw?t=2m22s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulu Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 This will sure make a car slower to accelerate. You have to wind up a lot more moving parts now, and that eats up your torque. Just switching my P15 from the 3spd to the 3spd with OD I noticed this right away. Extra rotational inertia is nice for cruising, but it makes getting to speed harder.
