Doesn't matter if the car is not in the correct rpm range for the quarter mile. The less shifting is also better for 1/4 mile. A 3.5 diff would be better for you I beat. MA can fix that up for you also with a quick change diff and custom subframe. LOL

This build is all new territory for me and I've been making decisions these past 5 years based on research and the technology available at the time.
Tried my best, but it's still an educated guess tho'.
I did consider the 3.5 FD (from the 350z) but it was too close to the 3.692 OEM gears in the car... so I went with the 3.357.
As it was - the OEM 3.692 gears were just about useless launching the car.
I did check out that video you posted earlier - looks like Dynosty did a great job on the build and tune.
One of the things I look back on and regret a little is not going with the 10:1CR.
I had 9.5:1 in the IPP built motor that AAM managed to grenade.
Daelen talked me into going back to the OEM 11:1 CR for their build.
Right now I'm going to live with what I have - been way too long as it is.
The DynoLog Sheet does show a hump in the Torque curve at 4300 rpm, and flat spot in the neighborhood of 5000 rpm.
Will have to see how that works out in real life.
I'm sure/hopng it can be corrected if needed.
