Are you having better traction since you got the CAI/Tune and 4:10 gears?
I read with interest in the V-8 section that a fellow Gt driver lost a race to a Dodge Charger stating for the most part he was having traction problems. When I was stock I too suffered from the car getting sideways and constant spinning. Since I have modded the car with Cold Air Induction/Brenspeed Tune and 4:10 gears I have actually gain traction. I have a Chevy friend at work who has drove my car before the mods and after and said it honkers down now like the Z-28s. I didn't think nothing of it until reading about the poor guy who got killed by a Dodge Charger R/T and I'm not talking of the SRT-8 either. But it's true I don't have no traction problems now maybe a tiny tire spin on a rare occasion but the pig stays straight. Anyone else like to intervene.

Everyone says you'll have worse traction with 4.10's. My boss thought it was the opposite, but he's a truck guy so what does he know.:) I have yet to try and spin the tires after the gear install, still going through the break in period.:(

Is your last option on the poll fron the eddie murphy skit? lol made me laugh if it is :P
and I get about zero traction with just the CAI and brenspeed tune, no 4.10s yet |

Makes no sense. It's physics.... You lose a TON of traction putting in 4.10's. The taller the gear, the less traction you have. It is impossible to gain traction from this. Now if you went from a 4.10 to 3.55, you would gain traction. There is no way you can gain traction from putting in a taller gear, impossible.
This is why people with f/i or nitrous cannot (or shouldnt) get 4.10s, cant get traction. It makes 1st gear completely useless. |
