If those ratios are short I dread to think what the MTX is like, I have always found the IB5 to be tall gearing.

Because ford use what ever box thay have to hand, like in the mondeo and fiesta st both same engine but fiesta uses ib5 mondeo mtx75.

First is alittle bit taller but every other gear is shorter than a mtx75.
