I would imagine so, yes. If I were you I would still check back in here for an expert to chime in but I am rather sure I've seen 4th gear is the 1:1 in another post a couple months back

forum gouge...

5th is 1:1, however, I would dyno in 4th, more realistic speed, plus you won't be winding it out to 175+ and bumping into the limiter if you're stock

I had read about some folks doing it in 5th but the guys at 034 Motorsport said 4th would be better.

Little trick my dad taught me was to watch the speedo and tach needle. When they raise at the same rate note the gear and that's your 1:1.
