downlow 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2005 Hey guys dont no much about ratios which would be the best to run in my setup, which is alot of power but not as much torque. your feed back will be appreciated. cheers matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chomies 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2005 most rotary guys run low ratios - quite common to see 4.6:1 and such... I'd go for a 4.1 - I heard a rumour that you can put a non-lsd crown wheel and pinion onto the lsd centre.... easy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Andrew Report post Posted June 16, 2005 i'd go for a short ratio like 4.1 - try get one that when you change from revlimit to the next gear it drops you right in the sweetspot - use Carls spreadsheet - it rules. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gus 5 Report post Posted June 16, 2005 will be different than e30's, because of the gearbox.....what does your rotor rev to? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Andrew Report post Posted June 17, 2005 will be different than e30's, because of the gearbox.....what does your rotor rev to? do you mean before or after vt@k ? 17000 rpm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carl 3 Report post Posted June 17, 2005 (edited) So long as you know what the gear ratios are in the gearbox then it's all good Hmmm, the new M6 will happily rev to 8500rpm, still nowhere near the vincinity of a f1 engine or a honda ...damned vt@k 2-strokes Edited June 17, 2005 by ///Carl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
downlow 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2005 will be different than e30's, because of the gearbox.....what does your rotor rev to? i can pull bout 11 - 12 grand,But usually only take it to bout 10 grand, Hey Carl my email addy is [email protected] cheers matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wms 1 Report post Posted June 17, 2005 Ive just converted mine so its only got the stock ratio (cig locked of course) Im running S5 turbo box so ideally you want around 4.1 - you dont need to go too low I feel but as your is only a chicken spinner and not a "big block" you may need tha help :jap: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
