Correct - thats why I couldn't figure out what change you were talking
about. I was under the assumption that only the front was changed to
increase the torque a little - there would not be any reason to change the
rear if that was the case.

A common setup on the T5's is to change to 17 / 45.
The stock setup on the ST (and most of the T5's thru 99) were 18T front and
43T rear.
