The probem is GETTING a .8 to begin with, there hard to come by and often much more expensive than a standard issue .6 ratio. Not all trans will even have a .8 as an option, forcing you into a more expensive model. And well worth the price in my opinion. There is NOTHING more frustrating than trying to cruise and be happy and at the same time watching the tach like a hawk, thinking about down shifting, worrying about speeding to keep the rpm within range. I tell you, it will wear you out and you will never be happy if you don't get it right, right now when you can.
