Lowering Gearbox Ratios - 02/07/2009 09:32
Whats the best approach to take?
I'm building a track only 20VT (first one in Ireland!!) and I'm looking to lower the gear ratios. the reason being the track in question is Mondello Park, very very tight track with only a short main straight, so the emphases will be on handling and mid range acceleration. The car is currently being torn apart in order to add some lightness to it, and will be running around the 300bhp mark.
The car in question is a 1997 20VT 5 speed
Suggestions??
