Thank you!I have a 2D
5.14 R & P
2.90
1.86
1.44
1.14
I run the Dunesport 14.50x15 #2 cut. 1st and 2nd are good. 3rd could be a tad longer and 4th could be moved out as well. especially at the higher boost settings. I am mainly a duner and spend zero time at the drags or sand highway.
Smart move.Spoke with Daniel at DFT today and they found out why the car runs out of gear so quickly. Going to swap out the 5.29 R/P for a 4:86 and get rid of the 140 4th gear for a 118.
My gear ratio was great when the motor was stock. It duned perfectly but with the Turbo it just runs out of gear really fast.I'm joining in here even though I don't have turbo (yet!). I have the following in my Mendeola 2D:
R&P = 5.43
1st = 3.11
2nd = 1.93
3rd = 1.56
4th = 1.22
I'm wondering about tires now too. For the past several years I was running the Xtreme Hole Shot 13.50-15.00s. I just got a set of the STU 33" Blaster. Seeing that my R&P is even lower than @ChasingSand it appears that I may have some re-gearing in my future. I'm sort of looking forward to how it does this season with the taller tires. I loved how it ran with the old tires!
