Run PVC till you have your routing figured out, then you take it out and bend the pipes accordingly

Make it easier to keep his RPM's up high for drifting (if you read what he posted)

Higher gears help him hook up on the rear end and also help big time with acceleration so it will help him in both situations

if he is doning mostly drifting id agree. if he is doing mostly drag racing id have to disagree. from what i understand our engines or any turbocharged engine for that matter will run stronger with load. the the 4.10s as apose to say 3.55's or 3.75 dont add enough load on the engine to effectivly (as far as max potential) perform in the 1/4 or 1/8. a good exaple of this is john huber, he ran 4.10's and switched to 3.55 and went faster. 3.55 seem to be the go to ratio for drang racing at least with our cars. a happy medium is what needs to be found, witch will be done more and also how often will it be driven?

So a happy medium would be 3.73.

Also, did you hear huber went 8.48 (or 8.45)
