Taller final drive for SC M3s?

MaxL · 09-09-2010, 07:37 PM

I am just wondering if owners of supercharged M3s considered putting in a taller final drive. My reasoning is that with SC, gears 1-2 are not useful anyway, especially for track duty (not straight line "racing"), so tall final gear will not hurt speed but will let shift less and improved highway range would be a nice bonus as well. Does it make sense? Anyone considered it?
