Assuming that you have stock sized tires, according to the gear ratio calculator:

205/50/16 tires, 3.90 rear end

3rd gear (1.0:1) at 70mph: 4000RPM
4th gear (.72:1) at 70mph: 2900RPM

So based on that, assuming stock tires, you're right, your OD isn't working.

If he is still on stock wheels and tires it is 205 60 15. Think you put the T2 numbers in but he said he has a NA.
