Default Vq35hr twin turbo with 4.058 FD

Hey guys I would like to know if anyone with an HR has gone TT with 4.058 FD set up? Please dont flame me lol I looked everywhere and couldnt find anything. If there is please point it. I am thinking of doing a set up like that in the next couple of months and just wanted to hear from someone with that set up.

people go back to stock gears because you got through the power band to fast with the 4.08 gears. So people go back to stock gears to continue building boost.

Actually for high hp FI setups, some people even gear higher (numerically lower such as 3.3FD) because of the useless first gear. At least that is what my research has indicated.

That is way too low for a fi setup on an HR. Stock would be perfect. 1st and 2nd would be absolutely useless with that gearing. If you still have your stock gears throw them back in.

Most people go to the extent of even running autotragic FD's with FI...you do not want 4.08 gears on a boosted car lol...that would kinda suck lol

a lot of boosted guys swap AT people with their 3.3 FD, the AT guys get a 3.5 so a little more kick for them, the boosted guys get 3.3 FD so they stay in boost longer.

Thanks guys for the feedback. Ill will keep you guys posted with my set up. Probably will go back to the stock gearing with that much power. I guess because its NA for now, the higher gearing really helps. Ill be in spinning world with the 4.08 FD TT. Thanks again

Don't waste your time or rubber with the 4.0 on a TT setup.

If you were to SC the car I don't think it would be that bad! But TT, your gonna die! Doesn't matter if you upgraded your diff or not! lol

Go with the 3.5 or 3.3 FD!
