LOL, it is not. I was just messing with you. You will be ready when the time comes for the engine upgrade. You will have some control over the boost in the curves with your right foot. It is a big benefit over the smaller turbo's. You have no control with them.

I do have 2 good motors right now so I may eventually build the spare one. Yep, boost is harder to control with the smaller turbos. That was one big reason of going with the bigger turbos. That, and they'll actually be easier on the motor. I'll keep the boost and torque in the (hopefully) safe range.

i've played around with the different diffs and the 3.33 ratio is too high for use under about 7-800 wheel. id go 3.56 from 500-750 and 3.33 for 750+

With 18” wheels? I have the calculations which it says would work perfect and act like 3.69 on 19”’s

Boost by gear with Ecutek will change things a bit. Not sure how it will do but I will be trying that first before even considering a diff change.
