Getting a MS3 dyno tomorrow...what gear?

[ElBartoRex]

So nobody can seem to decide what the best gear is to do a dyno pull..so what does everyone suggest?

 

[Fritch]

5th

 

[numbnuts22715]

i know a lot of people do 4th. Thats what they did mine on.

 

[ElBartoRex]

hmmm, so 4th or 5th?

 

[clos561]

try 4th and 5th

 

[nig3]

4th is the one

 

[trufanatic]

4th gear is your 1:1. you'll be dumb to do a 5th gear pull.....you'll get nothing but boost surge in 5th.

incorrect

on the MS3, 5th is closest to 1:1 ratio

4th is 1.171 and 5th is 1.085

4th is the best gear, you will get nothing but boost surge in 5th on a dyno.

Don't use 5th, you have a different final drive on that gear. 4th is the way to go.

It is a mystical and wonderful machine that produces numbers through a strange mix of alchemy and majic. These numbers are the rise and fall of many a person.

 

[clos561]

ive heard 4th but y not give 5th a shot once...u get 3 pulls right?

 

[ElBartoRex]
