@user-xr8uu1bc4t3 ай бұрын
Hey Hayden, thanks for the videos... Do you have a LSD? What tires and air pressure are you running up front? Just curious since some of those factors might help you squeak into the high 4's if you could get more traction... Obviously these FWD cars are far better for 30 or 40 rolls, not 0-60.... Too bad the wheel wells weren't bigger... I only went with 245's on mine since I didn't want to roll the fenders and remove the liners to squeeze 265's like the Civic Type-R... (I have a Mk7 GTI with EQT Stage 2 and am preparing to install a larger APR DTR6054 Turbo and E85 Tune... My goal is to get more mid and high rpm power where I'll have more traction to use it...)
