This information was taken from their official site, hope you find it usefull. 
For those who were interested in the Gear Sets but were not too sure on what sort of performance gains they would achieve, or were wanting to wait till the gears were tested and reviewed for performance and quality, you will be very pleased to hear the following results from the independent tests made on our Close Ratio Gear Sets. The results are via the UK's Leading Independent Honda Club & Magazine, and were subject to both Mettalurgic Analysis and Live Testing:
From the Magazine Review
Vehicle: B16 Civic
3rd Gear 40-70mph: 22.7% Improvement over stock
4th Gear 40-70mph: 23.3% Improvement over stock
5th Gear 40-70mph: 16.7% Improvement over stock
Average Improvement: 21% Improvement over stock on 3rd/4th/5th Gears
Tolerance: All within Honda Specifications
Quality: As Good/Similar to OEM Honda Gears
Results: Much smoother shifting between gears, much improved (and immediately noticeable) acceleration response
From the above, you can see that you would gain an average 21% Performance Gain throughout 3rd/4th/5th gears.
After installing our gears, you will experience a phenomenal increase in acceleration, albeit sacrificing top-end speed. Kit includes 3rd, 4th and 5th gear (perfect for keeping in the VTEC zone).
Specification:
3rd - 1.695
4th - 1.296 or 1.384 (Slight modification required to transmission casing)
5th - 1.000 or 1.130
Price: Only $624.95 shipped for 3rd & 4th Gear, $749.95 shipped for 3rd, 4th and 1.000 5th (extra $50 for 1.130 5th)
This has got to be one of the best, if not the best, "bang for buck" modifications out there. There are not a lot of modifications out there that will give you 21% increase in performance for less than US$750.
We also have a B-Series 3.070 1st Gear available for those who require a slightly longer 1st, specifically designed for hard launches. As used by several top NHRA SFWD contenders, providing a consistent 0.2sec reduction in 60ft times and proven to withstand 750+ horsepower! Price: Only $249.95 shipped!
For those with D15/16 Motors, you are not left out. We also have a Close Ratio Gear Set for your box as well:
Specification:
3rd - 1.565
4th - 1.250 (Stock 3rd Gear. Slight modification required)
5th - 1.000 (Slight modification required to transmission casing)
Price: Only $624.95 shipped!
For the Ultimate in "bang for buck" performance gains, install our Close Ratio Gear Sets along with our range of Final Drive Gears. Nowhere else will you be able to find a performance modification offering such a staggering increase in performance for $1300! Not to mention any strict modification/emissions requirements in place by your local authority.
Like our Close Gears, the MFactory range of Final Drive Gears are Diamond Cut to exacting tolerances from fully Carburized Forged Nickel-Chromoly Steel and put through our own proprietary heat treatment process. Put simply, you will not find a stronger, more reliable product on the market.
By changing your final gear ratios, you can experience a dramatic increase in acceleration throughout the rev-range, giving you upto 15% increase in torque at any given speed over the OEM Final Drive.
We have two series available for Honda/Acura, depending on your application:
Street - Our most popular product, the Street Series are perfect for the "Everyday Driver", yet also suitable for the amateur track/drag enthusiast, being over 30% stronger than the OEM Final Drive.
Pro - Specifically for Competition-Use Only. As the name suggests, the Pro Series are for those who are more serious about their racing and will give you that advantage you need to win over the competition. Forged from Grade 1 quality steel and put through our own proprietary heat treatment process, the Pro Series are several times stronger than our Street Series range and are specifically designed to endure the demanding requirements of high-power track/drag cars.
