Can anyone speak of 4.11 final drive upgrade from TRE?
Not really sure if it will be overkill for my level of build.

Only other thing I forgot to add is if you were looking to do a 2.4. the 4.11 would bring your rpms back into stockish range. I know with my 2.4 at 70mph I was at like 3500 rpms or around there. I know the higher hp guys use them but with my new 2.2 I really don't see the need for it even with close to or at 1000whp. Best advice would be to talk to John and see what he says.

I talked to Aaron at TRE about it and decided to keep stock ratio since im only on fp green and probably wont go big turbo or stroker for awhile.

Taller final drives should only be considered for high torque cars. Any thing that is still stock engine, or really even less than 500wtq, should stay on stock final drive.

You don't need to make 500ft-lbs at the wheels to justify or appreciate a 4.11 gear because there is no magic torque value that makes running a 4.11 vs 4.53 the tipping point for that decision. If you race the car and have certain rpm or gearing constraints then obviously choose your gearing accordingly. Otherwise, for a daily driver the perception of the change is subjective.

Anyone know of a transmission shop in Maryland that works on EVO transmissions? I need my 2003 EVO 8 transmission rebuilt.

Thanks
