    normal RPMs?

    what is the normal rmps while going 70 on the high way with an f22 tranny and f22a1 motor. idk what else would i need to put but i am just wondering wat the normal rpms would be

    It's determined by the gearing, so they are all the same. There is no "normal" or "abnormal". Each gear at a given speed will have the engine at a set RPM. I can't say exactly, because I haven't had an F22A since 2003... but I assure you, your RPM at 70mph in 5th gear will be exactly the same as anyone else's with the same transmission and tire size.

        well it depends on if it is a 4 speed auto or 5 speed manual
        it would also be different if it was lx or ex 5 speed
        wagons also have a LONGER FINAL DRIVE(fucking caps button)

        my 93 ex coupe 5speed is at about 2.7-2.8k will double check tonight tire size stock alloys 195-60-15

        my 93 ex wagon is an auto and it is at 3.5-3.7k i think but the torque converter is messed up

                    Why do people think that the RPMs will change if something is wrong with their car? The only way that would happen is if it was in a lower gear! And you'd know if you were driving around in 4th at 70mph, trust me.

                    There will be no variation. It is impossible.

                      I think 2800 is about right, I know at 80 I am at 3200, give or take. Our stock tranys are geared a little high, but hey, I like it that way.

                          NEWB! J/k man, you gotta learn somewhere. Everyone has been new to the whole car game at some point or another.

                          Mine(when she was running) was in the 27xx-28xx range but that was with me using my GPS as a speedo, apparently my stock speedo is a little off.

                            Just think a little bit... it's really not a hard concept to grasp.

                            Your tires count as part of the "gearing" of the transmission. The engine will spin faster to propel the car to 70mph with smaller tires than it would with larger ones.
                            Equipment accuracy also comes into play. The RPMs should usually be accurate, but the speedometers aren't always. Any variation will be due to those two things. Everything else, the RPMs will be exactly the same on every F22A equipped with that transmission.

                            Asking this question is like asking "I'm 6'1 and I never hit my head on a doorway that's 6'4. Does anyone else that's 6'1 ever hit their head on a doorway that's 6'4?"

                              what if the torque converter on an automatic wasn't locking in(or out which ever it does) to drop the rpms in fourth

                              that's what happening in my wagon it is at a way higher rpm than my sedan was
