Wouldn't that achieve the inverse of the Holy Grail and lose out on both
acceleration *and* top speed? The ratio in 4th is 3.909:1, OD 4th 3.2:1.
Top speed is 105mph, which means 5,800 rpm in 4th or 4,773 in OD 4th. So
the engine is already at or past its maximum gearing (mine seems to pull a
high top speed in OD 4th than 4th, but maybe that is just because I cringe
at the mechanical noises anywhere near the yellow line).
