Motor mount question. Reply #15 – October 30, 2013, 06:20:37 PM I'm not known for leaving anyplace without at least a tire chirp in first.the torque multiplication of your setup should be about 10x in first gear. mine is about 9.1 with the 3.35 first gear and a 2.73 rear. its also not uncommon for me to have 600-800 lbs worth of tools in my trunk.

I never go WOT from a stop on the street. The only time I do that is at the track. If I try to leave a stop with anymore than 1/3 throttle it just spins the tires. Quote Selected
