mbx5 owners - gearing change ?

Looking around to gain some more lowend/accel, i figured id go with a tooth smaller on the CB, but what came with the car is the smallest available (13T) that i could find and they only offer one size for the spur gear. Am i screwed, or just blind ? or both lol..

You could also try to find a spur gear with a HIGHER tooth count. Check out the tech info page, or click HERE for more information.
