You get more torque at the wheels at the expense of RPM but you also move your shift points vs. speed. With a lower gearing is it possible to get away with 2nd gear to 60. Taller gearingwould regquire shift into 3rd?? I've never done a 0-60 test so I wouldn't know


The 3.15 Differential has a gain in torque of 7.5%

How this would affect 0-60 times?

Has anyone done this mod?


One more thing.... if you add this mod to the AA chip you can have a torque of 249 lbs . Again... what is the possible gains in 0-60 times.

Thanks
