Deebeaux's VW TDI 02M/02J/02Q Gearspeed Comparator

This should give you a decent idea of the speed of your vehicle at the given RPM in various transmissions. Keep in mind this is not an exact number as there is no way to compensate for difference in manufactuering tolerances, tire wear, varying amounts of air in the tire, etc... All those things will change the size of the tire which will NOT be calculated here. This is just an approximation, but it should be close. If you find a number that looks way wacky or out of spec, let me know and I'll look into it. Enjoy!

Choose your tire size: * = NOTE:You MUST select "Custom" in the appropriate pulldown boxes if you want the script to calculate your defined items.

Final Drive 2 is only for some VW 6-speeds, if you do not have a 2nd final drive leave it blank..DO NOT PUT ZERO!

* = If you put in custom values for tire size and/or transmission, you must select custom in the appropriate pull down menu!

And what should we do from here?

Calculate gear speed starting at 8000 7000 6000 5000 rpm and count down in 1000 500 200 rpm increments.
Compare "1st" "2nd" "3rd" "4th" "5th" "6th" gear of my transmission with "1st" "2nd" "3rd" "4th" "5th" "6th" gear in a 02J DQY02J EBJ02J EGR02J GQQ02J JCR02M DRW02M EFF02M ERF02M FMH02Q Group 1 (ryanp)02Q Group 2 (ryanp)02Q Group 3 (ryanp) transmission starting at 5000 6000 7000 8000 rpm and count down in 200 500 1000 rpm increments.
