Also note that the car gets moving extremely quick when in 1st and 2nd (not talking about when launched) Hard to imagine quicker spool because the revs fly by.

Its a HTA 3586 TS set up right now. But I will be switching to a SS set-up this season to fully test TS vs SS. I want to know the truth first hand to how much power/spool difference is between the two. Time will tell
Man, you couldn't have been more detailed lol. It's great though! Sorry if it's a noob question, but what do you mean by TS and a SS setup?

OK, good luck with whatever you decide.....hope I helped.


You can make 500whp no problem with a green and supporting mods on E85 with a built motor. The new setup I should have been 565+ on E85.

I see that you're recommending me to stay with a 2.0, but I see that you have a 2.4 Mind if I ask why you feel this way? Just curious.

For what you are looking to do with it it sounds like it would work better than a 2.0 for you.

You can never go wrong with any Buschur short block, however the 2.3 is very fun on the street. I have a 2.3 gt35 and the powerband is very nice to play with on the streets.
