4.3 Gear ratio, DAMN. I was hoping for something lower than 4.0, maybe 3.73

 

[RyanJayG]

why though? with any kind of power 1st gear is already worthless...

 

[Focus]

FWD car + 400+ WHP can benefit from a ittle lower ratio gearing. ALso for drag racing will avoid going in to 5th

Maybe I am wrong.

oh I see.. I totally misunderstood what you are after... yeah, I agree... I want more top end as well... this final drive gear set is a higher ratio. you'd lose top end

 

[Focus]

Yup kinda sucks!

We Need Top End...

100 KM/H at 3000 RPM sucks...

Thats the place with the slow timing lights, right?

wow...That's just mean.

Instead of worring about gear ratios, just put taller tires on. 26/9/15 slicks fit good with the right wheels. PLus the slicks grow when at speed. You would be able to go 122mph in fourth and only be at 6500rpm.

Who me?

How big can you go before you hit the strut anyway?

26/9/15 will never fit. The biggest that will fit are 24.5/8/15

really? I thought they fit rather well.

Lucky! My M/T are extremely tight.

Well friday we recieved the new PWR intercooler, and i thought i would show you some pics of the core compared to my hiboost kit..
The PWR has an extruded tube and fin design, as opposed to Hiboost bar and plate,the new core measure 24x7.87x3 which should be good for around 415whp, ant the Hiboost was 22x6x2.5.

Heres some pics:

Yeah those are mounted on old chrysler cop wheels. I got lucky, just don't try to turn at any kind of speed.

That intercooler is huge...

The new core is 75% bigger then the old setup. Need all the tricks we can get out hands on with all of the stuff being done up north.

 

[BlkZoomZoom]

blah.. My stock intercooler works like a champ! Bottleneck...waz that?
