Hey y'all,

I'm Fred or for people who know me from the net, Rommel.

Current Car is a stock 1991 Oldsmobile Delta 88. Ain't in great condition but that's what I'm here for, to learn how to turn my pile of rust into an smooth running, cool looking pile of shiny metal that makes wrooom wrooom.

I am planning to do some mild modifications on it considering the already potent engine of 195hp or 145kw. My biggest concern is the high RPM’s in top gear (5); if it is possible to bring the RPM,s down by 1000RPM at cruising speed (currently 3800RPM @120km/ph), that would be great.

Hi HermanVTI-R. The Honda VTEC engines are built for high revs. It can be a little worrying after your last car which probably redlined at 4500 or 5000 rpm. The short crank in the Honda is best suited to high revs and the engine comes alive when you keep it in the VTEC zone. You will probably find the car less economical if you changed the gearing so the cruising speed was only at 2900 rpm.
