But much more importantly, the ESS powerband actually allows you to use all that power in every gear. It matches the chassis perfectly and with a good set of street tires and maybe some more solid subframe bushings to unitize the subframe and chassis, you can actually out launch nearly every car including all wheel drive cars. I showed this in my vid above where I out launched a couple Audi AWD cars including an R8 v10 which is a low 3-second 0-60 beast.
Thanks for your input.. Did you do the bearing or your still running stock bearings? I'm worried about the motor more than anything otherwise I would have done it years ago.. Boost kicks in at what? 4K?
