effective gear ratio? dont understand what that is.


Example:

1st gear = 3.42 & final drive = 4.06

Effective gear ratio = 13.89 : 1

5th gear = 0.77 & final drive = 4.06

Effective gear ratio = 3.13 : 1




i worship thee! wow...so what you are saying is on cars that can hook up a higher rpm clutch slip/dump with a lightened flywheel will work better than stock. our cars, which have the worst traction characteristics of anything i have ever driven, a light flywheel will compound the problem.
