I've got one installed. As delivered the final drive is the same as the 4speed, so you have to change the 5th gear ration to truly take advantage of it. I had my 5th changed to a .77 With the .77 5th gear, it is a really nice, abet expensive, improvement. The ratios are spaced much better, particularly for climbing hills. Switching to the 094 has also had the benefit of increasing my gas mileage by 1 mpg.
