"Leaving out the maths & ratios etc, it seems plain to me that, if the star=
ter turns faster, then so must the engine=E2=80=A6.?."


The high rpm of the actual motor in a reduction gear starter is reduced by =
gears to a lower rpm of the pinion which more or less corresponds to the or=
iginal starter rpm.

The only advantage of a reduction gear starter is its lower power consumpti=
on but that is academic and only relevant if your electrics are not up to s=
cratch due to lack of maintenance and that is surely not at hand?

The disadvantage is that it is more complicated and rather fragile as it is=
 often made with cheap materials, and as Joseph states it enters the gear r=
ing from the wrong side so ideally you would have to turn around the ring g=
ear on the flywheel.
