7at 4.08 FD Thoughts

Felix 808 · 01-06-2018, 11:35 AM

Searching back in the 3.69 review I found this on the 3.9's. I had also thought about going 3.9's but the cost to wow factor over the 3.69's I already had didn't add up to me. To be honest I keep entertaining the idea of going 4.08's as the car is just a toy I rarely drive,even though the 3.69's are doing nicely. It's always the quest for more even though the car will already break traction just fine.

I will make my 3:90 work by tuning & raising the high H.P. point to 7,500 rpm & shifting points apx. 200 rpm. to 7,700 rpm with a redline at 7,800 rpm. It should do very well at the track. Test pipes, maybe better tires plus^^^^^that will put me into the 12.7's/12.8's with stock intakes & stock mufflers. Also it's real fine as a daily street car.

Here are 2 reviews with 3.69's & 4.08's with the Auto:
