DSG!! YOU BASTID!!! When did you register here??
so if 3.73s and 4.10s both netted .2 sec, whats the advantage of 4.10s?UDTBadkarma said:Yeah i was under the impression gears netted you pretty much .2 sec in the 1/4 mile, reguarless if they were 3.73s or 4.10s. At least since i've been a member here, thats what everyone has always posted their gains being

theoretically, 4.10s will get you faster in the 1/4 than 3.73s. thing is, it takes a lot of practice to keep from spinning first and second, thus the lower times. however when someone learns to slip the clutch right w/ 4.10s, the gains are noticeable.UDTBadkarma said:Well the steeper, the more the improvement. But all the cases i've seen have netted .2 in the 1/4 with just a gear swap to 3.73 or 4.10s. 4.30s are idealy best for N/A 1/4 use, but its a little steep for DD for most. But honestly i think the 1/4 mile time difference between two identical cars with 3.73s and another with 4.10s would just be a drivers race. Thats why i just said either gear will net ya .2. I was just generalizing the times that i've seen people post. 4.10s are better for 1/4 racing of course, but i've seen them both net around .2...thats all im sayin

meant to say "thus the higher times", but i guess you all got the pointDerekStangGT said:theoretically, 4.10s will get you faster in the 1/4 than 3.73s. thing is, it takes a lot of practice to keep from spinning first and second, !thus the lower times!. however when someone learns to slip the clutch right w/ 4.10s, the gains are noticeable.

in the 1/4.....went 14.2 with 4.10s, catback, 18" rims with street tires. Then added a prochamber and went 13.97. Then put on a 17" drag radial and went 13.503greygt said:7 tenths in the eighth or the quater?

i know the 13.5 was a 1.8 60' the other 2 i have no idea that was 2 years ago. I'll try and find the time slips however03greygt said:Great numbers. The prochamber helped a pile too, it looks like. Can you tell me 60' times and 1/8 mile times for each. Thanks.
